GOLDEN ESTATES HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION is one of 1,084 community water systems in Montana in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 400 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 3 entries between 2002 and 2005, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2005.
All 3 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 and the Lead and Copper Rule.
