BUFFALO TRAIL WATER ASSOC is one of 150 community water systems in Kentucky in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, serving 4,514 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 17 entries between 1993 and 2017, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2017.
Of the 17, 8 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 Consumer Confidence Rule, the Lead and Copper Rule, and the Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule.
