Compliance record

Formal violations the EPA has on file for this supplier. A health-based violation means a contaminant limit or a required treatment was breached; the rest are monitoring or reporting failures — still violations, but not a measured health risk.

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.

Is R C Wsc tap water safe to drink?

EPA monitoring detected 20 contaminants in R C Wsc's water. A detection isn't the same as a violation — most levels are within federal limits. See each level and source above, and the utility's annual Consumer Confidence Report for its official compliance status.

What contaminants were detected in R C Wsc's water?

EPA monitoring detected Nitrate, Copper, Bromoform, Dibromochloromethane, Lead, and others. The full list with the level and data source for each is above.

How many people does R C Wsc serve?

R C Wsc reports serving 277 people in Texas, per its EPA record.

Has R C Wsc had any water quality violations?
