Public Notification Rule violations in Virginia

119 active public water systems in Virginia had a Public Notification Rule violation in the past three years, 119 of them in the latest quarter of EPA's data. What Public Notification Rule is and why it matters.

Health effects: No direct health risk from the notification violation itself, but delayed notification means customers may have consumed contaminated water without the chance to take protective action (boil water orders, bottled water use).

About this data

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

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 Virginia 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.
