Figures
- Locations
of public water-supply reservoirs and wells sampled for VOCs. Sites with one
or more detections shown in red, sites with no detections shown in green.
- The
percentage of samples in public water-supply reservoirs and wells with one
or more VOC detections are shown as pie graphs. The range of concentrations
in samples with detections are shown as boxplots.
