EPA v. PEARL RIVER WATER ASSOCIATION

Case summary

NOVEMBER 7, 2023 - ADMINISTRATIVE COMPLIANCE ORDER On June 15, 2023, EPA completed an onsite inspection of Respondent's public water system. The EPA inspection team held a virtual meeting with System staff on July 5, 2023, to complete the records review portion of the inspection. During the July 5, 2023 meeting, the EPA inspection team requested that Respondent produce its RRA and ERP, which it was required to maintain pursuant to Section 1433(d) of the SDWA. Despite having certified to the EPA that it had completed a RRA and ERP, Respondent was unable to produce the RRA and ERP and has been unable to produce them to date. Therefore, the EPA alleges that Respondent failed to comply with Sections 1433(a) and (b) of the SDWA, 42 U.S.C. ? 300i-2(a), for failure to prepare and certify its RRA and ERP.
