As required by EPA regulations: Under the Safe Drinking Water Act, the EPA sets standards and ensures compliance through monitoring, reporting, and enforcement mechanisms.

Random houses in the community take a sample annually from their tap and the utility district picks it up and sends it in for analysis.

The results are published . Who knows if the Trump’s EPA will follow these regulations
