37 served · groundwater · PWSID NY1901873 - Health-based Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule: a health-based violation (a contaminant recorded above the limit the EPA tracks), recorded once in November 2012. The EPA record for these does not include a measured level. All have since returned to compliance, per EPA records.
- Monitoring Consumer Confidence Rule: a monitoring or reporting violation (a required test or report was late or missed — not a measured exceedance), recorded 8 times between September 2008 and July 2013. All have since returned to compliance, per EPA records.
What this means
A health-based violation means a contaminant was recorded above the limit the EPA tracks for it. A monitoring or reporting violation means a required test or report was late or missed — not that a contaminant was measured above a limit. “Returned to compliance” means the EPA recorded the issue as resolved.
