Compliance record
Other contaminants detected
Each bar shows the measured level as a share of the EPA limit: green is
well under, amber is close to it, red is over. For lead and copper the
limit applies to exactly the 90th-percentile figure shown, so red there
means a real exceedance. For everything else the limit applies to a
running annual average while the figure is the single worst sample on
record — over 100% is worth reading, but is not by itself a violation.
Formal violations are listed separately.
| Contaminant | Level vs EPA limit | Detection rate | Source | Period |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lead | 0.0010 mg/L 6.7% of the EPA limit 0.0150 mg/L | 4/4 | LCR | 2024 |
