The primary purpose of VEPWS is to provide safe, clean drinking water to all VEHOA properties within our residential-only subdivision. All of Victoria Estates Public Water System’s (VEPWS) groundwater wells, water storage tanks, and water pumping equipment are located on our three point seven-five (3.75) acres property (Tract A) at 6663 W. Kinsington Ave.
Our Class A public water system complies with the same water quality testing standards as all public water systems of similar size within the United States and the State of Alaska. VEPSW’s Certified Water Operators conduct all water quality testing in compliance with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC) guidelines. We produce some of the highest-quality water in the region, as evidenced by our water quality testing program results.
Since 2016, VEPWS has received the following award recognitions for our outstanding performance in operating a water system of our size.

“Water Source Protection Award” for 2016 from the Alaska Rural Water Association (ARWA) for our efforts to protect and preserve our water source.
