Does Cedar Valley Inc. have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 8 violations for this system; 2 are health-based, and the most recent began in February 2023. The violations listed here began between July 1995 and February 2023. By type: 4 monitoring and reporting, 2 contaminant level above the legal limit, 1 monitoring and 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (7 of them). EPA lists 5 as resolved and 3 as archived. Resolved means at least one resolving action is on record: the system returned to compliance, the rule no longer applies, or no further action was needed.
