Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in April 2024. The violations listed here began between November 1998 and April 2024. By type: 6 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 3 monitoring and 3 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (3 of them).
