Results for CORONA, CA

1 water provider on file serving this city.

Quick answer: CORONA's water has no violation currently counted toward its compliance status. EPA's record shows a Nitrate violation dating to 03/28/1980 (46 years ago) — because it's more than five years past its deadline, EPA's policy no longer treats it as part of this system's current standing, though it remains on the public record.
