Why "no violations" needs a caveat here

SOUTHWATER INC serves 2,185 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 this data is and is not

Everything on this page is SOUTHWATER INC's own reported record under the Safe Drinking Water Act - a regulatory filing, not a sample of your tap. This record - 0 health-based violations on file for SOUTHWATER INC - stops at the meter and cannot see household plumbing on the other side of it. The guide to what this data misses covers that gap.
