Homes, apartments and mobile-home parks are served by these. California has 2,997 active community water systems, 40% of the state's 7,479 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 6,179 California systems (83%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Corda Rd Ws?
EPA lists Corda Rd Ws as privately owned. The CA state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 266 of the 307 active systems in Monterey County (87%) are also privately owned.
Does Corda Rd Ws have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 7 are health-based, and the most recent began in January 2026. The violations listed here began between November 2014 and January 2026. By type: 6 contaminant level above the legal limit, 3 monitoring and reporting, 1 monitoring, 1 required treatment not met and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Nitrate (6 of them). EPA lists 7 as archived, 2 as addressed, 2 as resolved and 1 as unaddressed. Archived means the violation was not marked resolved but is more than five years past the end of the noncompliance period, so it no longer counts toward current compliance status. Addressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is covered by formal enforcement. Resolved means at least one resolving action is on record: the system returned to compliance, the rule no longer applies, or no further action was needed. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
