Drinking water in Pearisburg, Virginia is delivered through 12 EPA-regulated community water systems serving an estimated 5,350 people. Each system is tracked in the EPA Safe Drinking Water Information System (SDWIS) under the Safe Drinking Water Act, which requires testing for regulated contaminants, consumer notification of violations, and publication of an annual Consumer Confidence Report.
PlainEnviro's health-based SDWIS extract shows 10 violation records across the 12 active community systems shown here. Monitoring and reporting records are not present in the extract. The records carry 2 distinct EPA contaminant codes: Groundwater Rule, Revised Total Coliform Rule.
