Water Quality Snapshot: Mountaineer Park Inc
Mountaineer Park Inc is a private-owned non-transient non-community water system that delivers drinking water to 5,760 residents in New Cumberland, West Virginia (Hancock County) through 60 service connections. Its water is drawn from groundwater sources. EPA's Safe Drinking Water Information System records 332 total violations for this system , of which 11 (3%) are health-based, meaning a contaminant exceeded an EPA Maximum Contaminant Level or a required treatment technique failed. A further 305 monitoring and reporting violations are on file. The most recent violation on record dates to 2023.
The most frequently cited contaminant at this system is Coliform (TCR), recorded in 50 violations (MR). Under EPA's UCMR5 PFAS monitoring program, 4 PFAS compounds were detected in samples collected from this system, with a maximum reported concentration of 12.2 ppt (parts per trillion). PFAS are persistent synthetic chemicals linked to health effects at very low exposure levels.
Across West Virginia, EPA tracks 774 public water systems serving 1,597,057 people, with 187,590 cumulative violations and 11,480 health-based violations on record. About 99% of systems in the state carry at least one violation, and state-wide the average per system is 242.4 violations. Statewide, 46 of 102 UCMR5-tested systems have reported PFAS detections (45.1%).
Mountaineer Park Inc's 332 violations sit above the West Virginia average.
All figures above are sourced directly from EPA SDWIS and UCMR5 public data releases and are updated as EPA publishes new reporting cycles.
