Why "no violations" needs a caveat here

CITY OF IOWA COLONY serves 9,978 people. EPA requires smaller systems to test less often than large ones, so a clean record here is real but weaker evidence than the same record on a system serving hundreds of thousands - fewer tests means fewer chances to catch a problem. See the guide to reading a clean record for what that does and does not tell you.

What CITY OF IOWA COLONY's record does not cover

Everything on this page is CITY OF IOWA COLONY's own reported record under the Safe Drinking Water Act - a regulatory filing, not a sample of your tap. This record - 0 health-based violations on file for CITY OF IOWA COLONY - stops at the meter and cannot see household plumbing on the other side of it. The guide to what this data misses covers that gap.
