What LINCOLNSHIRE's record does not cover
LINCOLNSHIRE'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 LINCOLNSHIRE's customers' taps is household plumbing, invisible to a system-level record ranked 6,591th of 12,903 by violation count. The guide to what this data misses covers that gap.
