How does Ridgeview Heights compare with other water systems in Tolland County?
By EPA's size categories, Ridgeview Heights is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Tolland County has 296 active public water systems. Its population served is about half of the county average of 202 people per system, and accounts for 0.2% of the 59,796 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Connecticut, the 2,363 active systems average 1,247 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Ridgeview Heights 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. Connecticut has 481 active 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 Ridgeview Heights?
EPA lists Ridgeview Heights 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. 253 of the 296 active systems in Tolland County (85%) are also privately owned.
Does Ridgeview Heights have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2025. The violations listed here began between October 2021 and January 2025. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting, 3 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 2 monitoring, 1 required treatment not met and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (2 of them). EPA lists 9 as resolved, 2 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.
