How does Dickinson Memorial Park compare with other water systems in Fairfield County?

By EPA's size categories, Dickinson Memorial Park 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 transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Dickinson Memorial 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 Dickinson Memorial Park?

EPA lists Dickinson Memorial Park 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.

Does Dickinson Memorial 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 April 2026. The violations listed here began between October 2003 and April 2026. By type: 4 monitoring and reporting, 3 reporting, 2 monitoring, 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (5 of them). EPA lists 10 as resolved, 1 as unaddressed and 1 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.
