WERBLS: EPA violation history, explained

WERBLS has a health-based violation on record, but none in the last five years - an older issue, not necessarily a current one. 2,193 people get their water from it, across 1,000 connections.

The concern categories on record

WERBLS's flagged contaminants and rule violations, grouped by what they actually mean for a filter choice rather than left as EPA's raw code list:

• Radionuclides - flagged from: Combined Uranium

The most severe category on record is radionuclides, which points toward a reverse osmosis-class filter if you want to address it directly.

What WERBLS's record does not cover

WERBLS'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. Water quality can still change between the meter and the faucet - household plumbing sits outside what a record of 116 logged violations can see. The guide to what this data misses covers that gap.
