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. Florida has 780 active non-transient non-community water systems, 15% of the state's 5,197 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 4,996 Florida systems (96%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Bobbie'S Busy Bee?
EPA lists Bobbie'S Busy Bee as privately owned. The FL state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 339 of the 401 active systems in Polk County (85%) are also privately owned.
Does Bobbie'S Busy Bee have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 11 violations for this system; 1 is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2026. The violations listed here began between September 2004 and January 2026. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting, 3 monitoring and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (3 of them).
