How does South Campo compare with other water systems in California?
By EPA's size categories, South Campo is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Across California, the 7,479 active systems average 5,706 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so South Campo is well below that figure.
What does “community water system” mean?
A community water system serves at least 15 connections used by year-round residents, or regularly serves at least 25 year-round residents. 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 South Campo?
EPA lists South Campo as Native American-owned. The EPA Region 09 is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act.
Does South Campo have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 2 are health-based, and the most recent began in January 2026. The violations listed here began between April 2010 and January 2026. By type: 8 monitoring and reporting, 2 monitoring and 2 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Combined Uranium (5 of them). EPA lists 9 as resolved and 3 as archived. 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. 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.
