Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in August 2006. The violations listed here began between October 1998 and August 2006. 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) (12 of them).
