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 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.
