By type: 4 monitoring and reporting and 2 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Nitrate (5 of them). EPA lists 5 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.
