Does Altamaha Park have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 5 violations for this system; none is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2011. The violations listed here began between October 1996 and January 2011. By type: 4 monitoring and reporting and 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (3 of them). EPA lists 4 as archived and 1 as resolved.
