How does Bittner Park compare with other water systems in New Haven County?

By EPA's size categories, Bittner Park is a very small system (500 people or fewer). New Haven County has 212 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 3,412 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 723,334 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Connecticut, the 2,363 active systems average 1,247 people each. Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Bittner Park is well below that figure.

What does “transient non-community water system” mean?

A transient non-community water system serves places where people do not stay long, such as gas stations and campgrounds, and regularly serves at least 25 people a day for at least 60 days a year. Connecticut has 1,399 active transient non-community water systems, 59% of the state's 2,363 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 2,263 Connecticut systems (96%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Bittner Park?

EPA lists Bittner Park as owned by a local government. The CT state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 32 of the 212 active systems in New Haven County (15%) are also owned by a local government.

Does Bittner Park have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in March 2026. The violations listed here began between January 2006 and March 2026. By type: 6 monitoring and reporting, 2 reporting, 2 monitoring, 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (5 of them). EPA lists 8 as resolved, 2 as unaddressed and 2 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement. 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.
