How does Certainteed Gypsum compare with other water systems in Putnam County?
By EPA's size categories, Certainteed Gypsum is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Putnam County has 113 active public water systems. Its population served is about half of the county average of 294 people per system, and accounts for 0.4% of the 33,215 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Florida, the 5,197 active systems average 4,345 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Certainteed Gypsum 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. 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 Certainteed Gypsum?
EPA lists Certainteed Gypsum 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. 97 of the 113 active systems in Putnam County (86%) are also privately owned.
Does Certainteed Gypsum have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 4 are health-based, and the most recent began in May 2025. The violations listed here began between January 2012 and May 2025. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting, 4 contaminant level above the legal limit and 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total trihalomethanes (TTHM) (7 of them). EPA lists 11 as resolved 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. 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.
