About this data
Share with violations counts any violation in the past three years, including monitoring and reporting lapses. Counts cover active systems; systems serving more than one county are counted in each.

The Vermont 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.
