What OREGON CITY's record does not cover

OREGON CITY'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 OREGON CITY's customers' taps is household plumbing, invisible to a system-level record ranked 12,615th of 12,903 by violation count.
