SUNSET TERRACE ESTATES is one of 498 community water systems in Vermont in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 45 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 7 entries between 1998 and 2008, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2008.
Of the 7, 4 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, the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule, and the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
