What the violations mean
Long Term 2 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule
2 incidentsThe system failed required surface water treatment or filtration standards
Untreated or inadequately treated surface water can contain bacteria and viruses
Stage 1 Disinfection Byproducts Rule
1 incidentThe system did not meet a treatment requirement of the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule
Byproducts form when disinfectants react with natural material in water. Long-term exposure above federal limits may increase cancer risk
Revised Total Coliform Rule
1 incidentThe system did not meet a requirement of the Revised Total Coliform Rule
Coliform and E. coli rules protect against bacteria in the distribution system
Where the water comes from
Cameron Water draws water from 1 surface water intake.
Annual water quality report
Cameron Water 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.
Where the state allows it, systems serving fewer than 10,000 people may publish the report in a local newspaper or news site instead of mailing it, and must provide a copy on request.
Find a posted report with EPA's Consumer Confidence Report search
