Heptachlor violations in Wisconsin

18 active public water systems in Wisconsin had a Heptachlor violation in the past three years. What Heptachlor is and why it matters.

Health effects: Chronic exposure to heptachlor is associated with liver damage and increased cancer risk. EPA classifies it as a probable human carcinogen (Group B2). Animal studies show liver tumors at elevated doses. The general population faces chronic risk from legacy soil contamination; children are most vulnerable to cumulative organochlorine exposure.

About this data

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