What METAMORA's record does not cover

METAMORA'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 METAMORA's customers' taps is household plumbing, invisible to a system-level record ranked 10,827th of 12,903 by violation count. The guide to what this data misses covers that gap.
