SUNSET PINES is one of 1,084 community water systems in Montana in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 55 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 12 entries between 2002 and 2008, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2008.
Of the 12, 9 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 Total Coliform Rules, and inorganic chemicals.
