How does Camp Playland compare with other water systems in Fairfield County?
By EPA's size categories, Camp Playland is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Fairfield County has 337 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 2,311 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 778,730 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Connecticut, the 2,363 active systems average 1,247 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Camp Playland is well below that figure.
What does “non-transient non-community water system” mean?
A non-transient non-community water system regularly serves at least 25 of the same people for more than six months a year, but not where they live. Schools, factories, office buildings and hospitals with their own supply are typical examples. Connecticut has 483 active non-transient non-community water systems, 20% 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 Camp Playland?
EPA lists Camp Playland as privately owned. 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. 286 of the 337 active systems in Fairfield County (85%) are also privately owned.
