Lead and Copper Rule

Monitoring and Reporting

6 violations, Jul 2023 to open
EPA rule code 350 · 6 violations recorded, 6 still open

Monitoring and Reporting: 6 violations, open since Jul 2023. The system did not complete required monitoring, or did not report the results on time. This does not show that a contaminant was found.

What the rule requires: The 1991 LCR uses action levels rather than MCLs: if the 90th percentile of high-risk tap samples exceeds 15 ppb lead or 1.3 mg/L copper, the system must take escalating corrective actions. Violations typically indicate failure to maintain adequate corrosion control — the treatment that keeps lead from leaching out of pipes, solder, and fixtures.

About this rule

Lead and Copper Rule Revisions

Reporting ViolationTreatment Technique Violation Health-based

2 violations, Oct 2024 to open
EPA rule code 351 · 2 violations recorded, 2 still open, 1 health-based

Treatment Technique Violation, health-based: 1 violation, open since Oct 2024. The system did not carry out a required treatment process or corrective action.

Reporting Violation: 1 violation, open since Oct 2024. The system did not report required information on time.

What the rule requires: The 2021 LCRR updated the 1991 LCR with mandatory lead service line inventories and replacement planning, a new 'trigger level' at 10 ppb requiring optimization, and strengthened public education. The 2024 Lead and Copper Rule Improvements (LCRI) further requires replacing all lead service lines within 10 years.

Health effects: Same as Lead and Copper Rule (5000). Violations typically reflect failure to complete the required lead service line inventory or submit a required replacement plan. Lead service lines are the primary source of lead at the tap in many older systems. Limit: Lead action level: 15 ppb (trigger level: 10 ppb); copper action level: 1.3 mg/L

Revised Total Coliform Rule

Monitoring Violation

34 violations, Jul 2023 to May 2026
EPA rule code 111 · 34 violations recorded

Monitoring Violation: 34 violations, Jul 2023 to May 2026. The system did not complete required monitoring. This does not show that a contaminant was found.

What the rule requires: The 2013 RTCR (effective 2016) replaced the original TCR. It triggers automatic E. coli testing whenever total coliform is found. A single E. coli-positive sample is an acute MCL violation. It also requires systems exceeding 5% total coliform-positive samples to conduct a formal assessment and correct any deficiencies, helping prevent contamination before it escalates.

About this rule

Surface Water Treatment Rule

Monitoring and Reporting

34 violations, Jul 2023 to May 2026
EPA rule code 121 · 34 violations recorded

Monitoring and Reporting: 34 violations, Jul 2023 to May 2026. The system did not complete required monitoring, or did not report the results on time. This does not show that a contaminant was found.

What the rule requires: All systems using surface water (rivers, lakes, reservoirs) or groundwater under surface influence (GWUDI) must filter and disinfect. Treatment technique violations mean the system failed to maintain adequate disinfectant residual, exceeded turbidity limits, or lacked required permits. Snowmelt and storm events can raise turbidity and pathogen loads in surface water.

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.

A measured value shown with a rule is the sample result EPA recorded with that violation (SDWIS viol_measure), against the limit EPA recorded on the same row (state_mcl), both in EPA's unit as written; violations without a recorded value, such as missed monitoring, show none. Other measured contaminant levels are not part of this record; each system publishes them in its annual Consumer Confidence Report.

The Oklahoma 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.
