EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2026; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 21 entries between 1980 and 1993, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 1993.

Of the 21, 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, the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
