What the violations mean

Surface Water Treatment Rule

1 incident

The system did not complete a treatment step or action that the Surface Water Treatment Rule requires (a treatment technique violation).

The utility had to notify customers about this violation.

Where the water comes from

Eek Water System draws water from 1 surface water intake.

Annual water quality report

Eek Water System must give its customers an annual water quality report (Consumer Confidence Report) by July 1, with the levels its tests found in the previous year.

Systems serving 500 or fewer people may meet the rule by telling customers the report is available on request, so you may need to ask Eek Water System for a copy.

Find a posted report with EPA's Consumer Confidence Report search

Testing your own water

To test the water at your tap, or a private well this record does not cover, use a laboratory certified for drinking water by Alaska.
