Nitrite

Nitrite (NO₂) enters water from fertilizer runoff, septic systems, and natural mineral deposits.
EPA rule code 1041 · Inorganic Chemical

What it means: Nitrite (NO₂) enters water from fertilizer runoff, septic systems, and natural mineral deposits. Unlike nitrate, nitrite acts very quickly in the body — it converts hemoglobin to methemoglobin, which cannot carry oxygen. Nitrite can also form in distribution systems through microbial nitrification when chloramine disinfection breaks down.

Health effects: Methemoglobinemia ('blue baby syndrome') in infants under 6 months: reduced oxygen delivery to tissues can be life-threatening. Pregnant women and people with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency are also at elevated risk. Adults are generally less susceptible due to more effective methemoglobin reduction.

Limit: 1 mg/L as nitrogen (NO₂-N)

About this contaminant
About this data

EPA counts the rules a system was in violation of, not the individual violations; one rule can carry several in the same period. Unresolved means still in violation at EPA's latest data refresh. Measured contaminant levels are not part of this record; each system publishes them in its annual Consumer Confidence Report.

Service area from EPA's Public Water System Service Area Boundaries dataset: location confidence LOWER. The system's location is the centre of the service area EPA publishes for the system.

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 Wyoming 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.
