Rules violated in the past three years

Jul to Sep 2023 to Jul to Sep 2026

Nitrate Rule

Maximum Contaminant Level Violation Health-based

1 violation, Jan 2024 to Feb 2026
EPA rule code 331 · 1 violation recorded, 1 health-based

Maximum Contaminant Level Violation, health-based: 1 violation, Jan 2024 to Feb 2026. A sample exceeded the maximum contaminant level EPA allows in drinking water.

What the rule requires: Nitrate (NO₃) is the most common chemical contaminant in US groundwater, entering from fertilizers, septic systems, and animal waste. It is odorless and tasteless — the only way to know if it's present is to test.

Health effects: Methemoglobinemia in infants under 6 months: gut bacteria convert nitrate to nitrite, which blocks oxygen transport in blood. Pregnant women should also take precautions. Chronic adult exposure at elevated levels may increase cancer risk. Limit: 10 mg/L as nitrogen (NO₃-N)

About this rule
About this data

Rules violated and the list above come from EPA's SDWIS violation records, one row per violation and contaminant, grouped by the rule each row belongs to. A violation counts when its non-compliance period ended on or after Jul 1, 2023, the start of the thirteen quarters ECHO's three-year figures cover, or is still open; it is unresolved when it was still open at EPA's data refresh on Oct 7, 2026. EPA's rule code 500, "Not Regulated", is left out, as in ECHO's counts. Each rule's violation count is EPA's, and one rule can carry several: a missed monitoring round for a group of contaminants is one violation per contaminant and period. Category names are EPA's violation categories.

ECHO's own summary count of rules violated agrees with this grouping for 98.8% of active systems nationally, and its count of rules being violated for 98.7%; where they differ, the figures here follow the rows listed.

Measured contaminant levels are not part of this record; each system publishes them in its annual Consumer Confidence Report.

Service area from EPA's Public Water System Service Area Boundaries dataset: location confidence HIGHER. The system's location is the centre of the service area EPA publishes for the system.

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.
