Does Desert View Christian School have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 6 violations for this system; 1 is health-based, and the most recent began in October 2019. The violations listed here began between January 2009 and October 2019.

The contaminant or rule involved most often is Lead and Copper Rule (2 of them). EPA lists 4 as resolved, 1 as archived and 1 as unaddressed. 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.

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