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 95th percentile of this system's samples — over 100% is worth reading, but is not by itself a violation. Where a single sample came in higher than that percentile, it is noted under the bar. Formal violations are listed separately.

Contaminant	Level vs EPA limit	Detection rate	Source	Period
Copper	10.8 µg/L 0.8% of the EPA limit 1300 µg/L worst single sample: 11.7 µg/L	10/10	SYR4	2014–2017
Lead	2.58 µg/L 17% of the EPA limit 15 µg/L worst single sample: 2.8 µg/L	5/10	SYR4	2014–2017
Cyanide	760 µg/L 380% of the EPA limit, at the 95th percentile of samples — 200 µg/L	1/2	SYR4	2016–2019
