36 served · groundwater · PWSID VT0005475 - Health-based Coliform (TCR): a health-based violation (a contaminant recorded above the limit the EPA tracks), recorded 4 times between March 1992 and July 2015. The EPA record for these does not include a measured level. All have since returned to compliance, per EPA records.

What this means
A health-based violation means a contaminant was recorded above the limit the EPA tracks for it. A monitoring or reporting violation means a required test or report was late or missed — not that a contaminant was measured above a limit. “Returned to compliance” means the EPA recorded the issue as resolved.
