BEREA MUNICIPAL UTILITIES is one of 150 community water systems in Kentucky in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, serving 9,972 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 24 entries between 1992 and 2020, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2020.
Of the 24, 13 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 the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, the Surface Water Treatment Rules, and the Consumer Confidence Rule.
