Does Dot-Surry Co I-77 Weigh St Sbl have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 2 are health-based, and the most recent began in April 2024. The violations listed here began between June 1994 and April 2024. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting, 2 monitoring, 2 contaminant level above the legal limit and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (8 of them). EPA lists 8 as resolved, 3 as archived and 1 as addressed. 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. Addressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is covered by formal enforcement.
