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

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 Posypanko Park?

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 Posypanko Park 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 2021. The violations listed here began between September 2007 and January 2021. By type: 4 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 4 monitoring, 2 monitoring and reporting, 1 required treatment not met 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.
