How does Ridge Manor Campground compare with other water systems in Hernando County?
By EPA's size categories, Ridge Manor Campground is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Hernando County has 113 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 1,577 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 178,191 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 Ridge Manor Campground 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 Ridge Manor Campground?
EPA lists Ridge Manor Campground 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. 83 of the 113 active systems in Hernando County (73%) are also privately owned.
Does Ridge Manor Campground have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 11 violations for this system; 1 is health-based, and the most recent began in October 2025. The violations listed here began between August 1989 and October 2025. By type: 8 monitoring and reporting, 2 monitoring and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (2 of them). EPA lists 6 as archived, 4 as resolved and 1 as unaddressed. 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
