How does Green Acres compare with other water systems in Hillsborough County?

By EPA's size categories, Green Acres is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Hillsborough County has 722 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 2,415 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 1,743,513 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Florida, the 5,197 active systems average 4,345 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Green Acres 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. Florida has 1,640 active community water systems, 32% 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 Green Acres?

EPA lists Green Acres 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. 653 of the 722 active systems in Hillsborough County (90%) are also privately owned.

Does Green Acres have drinking water violations?

EPA's records list 10 violations for this system; 1 is health-based, and the most recent began in November 2019. The violations listed here began between October 1994 and November 2019. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting, 3 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 1 monitoring and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (4 of them). EPA lists 7 as archived and 3 as resolved. 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. 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.
