Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule violations in Florida

45 active public water systems in Florida had a Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule violation in the past three years, 45 of them in the latest quarter of EPA's data. What Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule is and why it matters.

Health effects: The rule addresses long-term cancer risk and potential reproductive effects from disinfection byproducts, particularly trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids. Violations indicate that customers at the highest-exposure locations within the distribution system exceeded the byproduct limits, which poses greater risk than system-average exceedances.

About this data

A system is counted once if any of its violations in the past three years involved Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, including monitoring and reporting lapses. Rules violated and status in the table are for the whole system, not Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule alone.

Source: the U.S. EPA's Enforcement and Compliance History Online system (ECHO), which publishes the federal Safe Drinking Water Information System. EPA's terms and values are shown as published. The Florida records are from EPA's data refresh of Oct 7, 2026; EPA refreshes this data quarterly, and states report to EPA with a lag of three to six months, so the newest violations may not appear yet.
