BARBOURVILLE UTILITIES is one of 104 community water systems in Kentucky in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 16,420 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 66 entries between 1993 and 2023, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2023.

Of the 66, 45 are monitoring and reporting requirements — the category that accounts for about four in five of all violations in EPA's national dataset — rather than findings about the water itself. The record involves volatile organic chemicals, the Consumer Confidence Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
