Does Brandon-Brent Heights WTP have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2024. The violations listed here began between October 1998 and January 2024. By type: 11 monitoring and reporting and 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (6 of them).
