Compliance record

Source Register of another agency · fetched 2026-09-09 · verify at EPA ECHO ↗

EPA's summary: violations in 1 of the last 12 quarters; not a serious violator. Contaminants in violation in the last three years, in EPA's words: 2950=TTHM.

1 health-based violation on the federal record all time, 0 violations open today. Most recent health-based: Maximum contaminant level exceeded, compliance period from 2023-04-01, returned to compliance 2023-07-25.

PeriodKindHealth-basedStatusMeasuredCodes
2023-04-01 – 2023-06-30 Maximum contaminant level exceeded yes returned to compliance (2023-07-25) 0.0939 MG/L (limit 0.08) v02 c2950 r220

Lead and copper: the latest 90th-percentile lead result is 0.002 mg/L (sampling period ending 2023-12-31) against an action level of 0.015 mg/L; 9 results on file.

SDWIS federal reporting carries violations and lead/copper percentiles only; nitrate, disinfection by-product and PFAS sample results are not in it. Codes are EPA's (violation, contaminant, rule); the ECHO report expands them.

PFAS and lithium: EPA's UCMR 5 monitoring, 2023–2025

16 samples, 480 results, 2024-01-17 to 2025-08-19. 7 of the 29 PFAS were detected at least once; lithium was measured up to 31.9 µg/L (no federal limit). PFOA measured up to 0.0053 µg/L, at or above EPA's 2024 limit of 0.004 µg/L; PFOS measured up to 0.0106 µg/L, at or above EPA's 2024 limit of 0.004 µg/L.

Rows shown: every detected contaminant plus the regulated PFAS and lithium; the rest were below their reporting limits. These are UCMR monitoring samples, not compliance samples. EPA's April 2024 rule set 4.0 ng/L (0.004 µg/L) for PFOA and PFOS, the same as UCMR 5's reporting limit, so any detection of either is at or above it; the rule's compliance date and its other limits have been under revision since 2025 and are not applied here. State PFAS sampling is on CDPHE's pages ↗.
