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 Salt Springs Village?

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. 57 of the 485 active systems in Marion County (12%) are also under public/private ownership.
Does Salt Springs Village have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2007. The violations listed here began between October 1984 and January 2007. By type: 12 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Nitrate (3 of them). EPA lists 10 as archived, 1 as unaddressed and 1 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement. 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.
