cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene violations in Maryland

2 active public water systems in Maryland had a cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene violation in the past three years. What cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene is and why it matters.

Health effects: Chronic exposure to cis-1,2-dichloroethylene is associated with liver, nervous system, and immune system effects in animal studies. EPA has not classified it as a human carcinogen based on available data. Its detection in water often signals the presence of more acutely toxic parent compounds such as TCE or vinyl chloride.

About this data

A system is counted once if any of its violations in the past three years involved cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene, including monitoring and reporting lapses. Rules violated and status in the table are for the whole system, not cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene 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 Maryland 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.
