ELK LAKE WATER COMPANY is one of 209 community water systems in Kentucky in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, formerly serving 1,089 people from surface water.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2002; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 16 entries between 1985 and 1999, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 1999.

All 16 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 inorganic chemicals and synthetic organic chemicals.
