Maximum Contaminant Level

Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL)

Slovak translation: Slovenský termín

1. The highest (maximum) level of a contaminant allowed to go uncorrected by a public water system under federal or state regulations. Depending on the contaminant, allowable levels might be calculated as an average over time, or might be based on individual test results. Corrective steps are implemented if the MCL is exceeded.
