As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 9 entries between 2008 and 2024, all of which EPA lists as closed.
Of the 9, 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 Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule, the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
