Does Victory Baptist Church have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 8 violations for this system; 4 are health-based, and the most recent began in January 2021. The violations listed here began between July 1992 and January 2021. By type: 4 contaminant level above the legal limit, 2 monitoring and 2 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (5 of them). EPA lists 6 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.
