What kind of problem, specifically
ALAMO's flagged contaminants and rule violations, grouped by what they actually mean for a filter choice rather than left as EPA's raw code list:
- Radionuclides - flagged from: Combined Radium (-226 and -228); Gross Alpha, Excl. Radon and U
The most severe category on record is radionuclides, which points toward a reverse osmosis-class filter if you want to address it directly.
What this data is and is not
This is what ALAMO reported to its state primacy agency and EPA under the Safe Drinking Water Act - real regulatory record, not a lab test of your specific tap. Between the utility's meter and ALAMO's customers' taps is household plumbing, invisible to a system-level record ranked 2,414th of 12,903 by violation count. The guide to what this data misses covers that gap.
