BLACK RIVER OVERLOOK is one of 498 community water systems in Vermont in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 66 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 23 entries between 1997 and 2009, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2009.
Of the 23, 21 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, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
