The contaminants or rules involved are Consumer Confidence Rule, Total coliform bacteria (TCR) and Gross alpha (excluding radon and uranium). EPA lists 1 as unaddressed, 1 as archived and 1 as resolved. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement. Archived means the violation was not marked resolved but is more than five years past the end of the noncompliance period, so it no longer counts toward current compliance status. 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.
