Drinking Water Health-based Violation
Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-008560
Violations of maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) or maximum residual disinfectant levels (MRDLs) under the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), which specify the highest concentrations of contaminants or disinfectants, respectively, allowed in drinking water; or of treatment technique (TT) rules, which specify required processes intended to reduce the amounts of contaminants in drinking water. MCLs, MRDLs, and treatment technique rules are all health-based drinking water standards.
