Health effects: Chronic chlordane exposure is associated with liver damage and increased cancer risk. EPA classifies it as a probable human carcinogen (Group B2).

Children and immunocompromised individuals are most vulnerable.

About this data

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

The New Jersey 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.
