SALMON RIVER VALLEY is one of 1,168 community water systems in Oregon in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 75 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 32 entries between 1976 and 2024, all of which EPA lists as closed.
Of the 32, 23 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 Total Coliform Rules, volatile organic chemicals, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
