EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2022; the record below is historical.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 21 entries between 1994 and 2020, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2020.
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 synthetic organic chemicals, volatile organic chemicals, and the Total Coliform Rules.
