Does Nhc Utilities have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 10 violations for this system; 1 is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2023. The violations listed here began between October 1995 and January 2023. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (6 of them). EPA lists 5 as resolved, 4 as archived and 1 as addressed. 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.

Addressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is covered by formal enforcement.
