Does Veolia Water New Jersey Sammis Road 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 February 1992 and September 2012. By type: 11 monitoring and reporting and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (11 of them). EPA lists 10 as archived and 2 as resolved.
