Does Aqua Illinois-Nordic Woods have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in June 1998. The violations listed here began between October 1996 and June 1998. By type: 12 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (7 of them). EPA lists 9 as archived and 3 as resolved. 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.
