No health-based violations reported to EPA in the five years to October 2026, like 83% of the 3,525 systems serving 10,001–50,000 people. 1 older violation is still open, since 2021: a surface water treatment requirement (Long Term 2 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule), per EPA’s records.
The latest lead result on file, the 90th percentile of homes sampled in Jan 2023–Dec 2025, was 1.5 ppb, below the 15 ppb action level that applied. The highest in five years was 3.3 ppb. That’s higher than 58% of similar systems’ latest results.
