Does Aqua Illinois-Indianola have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in September 2005. The violations listed here began between January 1994 and September 2005. By type: 11 monitoring and reporting and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (4 of them). EPA lists 10 as resolved and 2 as archived. 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.
