What INDEPENDENCE WATER SYSTEM's record does not cover

INDEPENDENCE WATER SYSTEM's numbers here come from its own required reporting to EPA under the Safe Drinking Water Act, not from an independent test of your glass of water. Between the utility's meter and INDEPENDENCE WATER SYSTEM's customers' taps is household plumbing, invisible to a system-level record ranked 9,592th of 12,903 by violation count. The guide to what this data misses covers that gap.
