Why "no violations" needs a caveat here

NIAGARA WATER IMPROVEMENT AREA serves 8,100 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 NIAGARA WATER IMPROVEMENT AREA's record does not cover

Everything on this page is NIAGARA WATER IMPROVEMENT AREA's own reported record under the Safe Drinking Water Act - a regulatory filing, not a sample of your tap. Between the utility's meter and NIAGARA WATER IMPROVEMENT AREA's customers' taps is household plumbing, invisible to a system-level record ranked 12,696th of 12,903 by violation count. The guide to what this data misses covers that gap.
