Does Stacy have drinking water violations?

EPA's records list 9 violations for this system; 4 are health-based, and the most recent began in May 2018. The violations listed here began between December 1999 and May 2018. By type: 4 monitoring and reporting, 4 contaminant level above the legal limit and 1 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Combined Radium (-226 and -228) (3 of them). EPA lists 8 as resolved and 1 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. 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.
