Enforcement actions

Oregon regulators took 3 formal enforcement actions against Midland Water Association between 2011 and 2024. The most recent was a compliance order with a penalty in January 2024.

Date By Action Violations covered
Jan 31, 2024 Oregon Compliance order with a penalty 19 violations (1 health-based): Surface Water Treatment Rule, Interim Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule, Stage 1 Disinfection Byproducts Rule
Jun 15, 2022 Oregon Compliance order with a penalty 8 violations: Haloacetic Acids (HAA5), Total Trihalomethanes (TTHMs), Lead and Copper Rule, Nitrate
Apr 25, 2011 Oregon Signed compliance agreement 6 violations (4 health-based): Surface Water Treatment Rule, Interim Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule, Stage 1 Disinfection Byproducts Rule

What the violations mean

Interim Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule

10 incidents

The system did not meet a filtration or treatment requirement for surface water

Inadequate treatment of surface water can let pathogens such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia through

Revised Total Coliform Rule

2 incidents

The system did not meet a requirement of the Revised Total Coliform Rule

Coliform and E. coli rules protect against bacteria in the distribution system

Stage 1 Disinfection Byproducts Rule

1 incident

The system did not meet a treatment requirement of the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule

Byproducts form when disinfectants react with natural material in water. Long-term exposure above federal limits may increase cancer risk

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

Midland Water Association draws water from 3 surface water intakes.

Annual water quality report

Midland Water Association 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 Midland Water Association 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 Oregon.
