What this means

Carbofuran appears in EPA SDWIS with 44,569 recorded violations across 8,168 public water systems. Of those, 0% are classified as health-based, meaning the reading exceeded a federally enforceable Maximum Contaminant Level or a treatment-technique requirement rather than a monitoring or reporting lapse. Health-based violations are the subset that trigger formal corrective action and public notification, so the share is a useful signal of real-world exposure risk rather than paperwork drift. State-level concentration data is not consistently reported for this contaminant, so regional interpretation should lean on the system table below rather than state aggregates. Utilities listed below are ranked by cumulative violation count, so a higher rank reflects persistence in the record rather than a single spike; readers comparing systems should consider population served alongside violation count to gauge how many households were actually exposed.

Violation Type Split

Carbofuran violations broken down by EPA classification.

Health-based (0%) Monitoring/Reporting (100%)

Health-based violations indicate the contaminant exceeded an EPA Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) or treatment-technique requirement; monitoring/reporting violations are procedural.
