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 under the influence of surface water is well or spring water that the regulator has found to be affected by nearby surface water, so it is regulated under the surface-water treatment rules. 5 Florida systems (less than 0.1%) list groundwater under influence of surface water as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Pilgrim'S Pride WTP?
EPA lists Pilgrim'S Pride WTP 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. 39 of the 49 active systems in Suwannee County (80%) are also privately owned.
Does Pilgrim'S Pride WTP have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in May 2023. The violations listed here began between July 2013 and May 2023. By type: 8 monitoring and reporting, 3 monitoring and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Haloacetic acids (HAA5) (4 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.
