About this data
Totals cover active systems. Systems serving more than one county are counted in each county. EPA counts the rules a system was in violation of, not the individual violations; one rule can carry several.
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 Minnesota 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.
