ARLINGTON WATER DEPT is one of 98 community water systems in Vermont in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,250 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 7 entries between 1993 and 2019, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2019.
All 7 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 Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
