Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in February 2024. The violations listed here began between January 2002 and February 2024. By type: 11 monitoring and reporting and 1 monitoring. The contaminants or rules involved are Revised Total Coliform Rule, Total coliform bacteria (TCR), Lead and Copper Rule and Cadmium.
