Does Trinity Evangelical Church have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 10 violations for this system; 2 are health-based, and the most recent began in April 2019. The violations listed here began between January 1992 and April 2019. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting, 2 reporting, 2 contaminant level above the legal limit and 1 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (6 of them).
