What the violations mean

LEAD AND COPPER RULE REVISIONS

1 incident

The system did not complete a treatment step or action that the LEAD AND COPPER RULE REVISIONS requires (a treatment technique violation).

The utility had to notify customers about this violation.

Where the water comes from

El Perico II draws water from 1 well.

Annual water quality report

El Perico II must give its customers an annual water quality report (Consumer Confidence Report) by July 1, with the levels its tests found in the previous year.

Systems serving 500 or fewer people may meet the rule by telling customers the report is available on request, so you may need to ask El Perico II for a copy.

Find a posted report with EPA's Consumer Confidence Report search

Testing your own water

To test the water at your tap, or a private well this record does not cover, use a laboratory certified for drinking water by Puerto Rico.
