Does Boone Grove High School 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 2012. The violations listed here began between January 1999 and September 2012. By type: 11 monitoring and reporting and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminants or rules involved are Total coliform bacteria (TCR), 1,2,4-Trichlorobenzene, Vinyl chloride and 1,1,1-Trichloroethane. EPA lists 11 as archived and 1 as resolved.
