How does Isle of Wight compare with other water systems in Liberty County?
By EPA's size categories, Isle of Wight is a small system (501 to 3,300 people). Liberty County has 51 active public water systems. Its population served is about 41% below the county average of 1,500 people per system, and accounts for 1.2% of the 76,506 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Georgia, the 2,375 active systems average 4,525 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Isle of Wight 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. Georgia has 1,724 active community water systems, 73% of the state's 2,375 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 2,118 Georgia systems (89%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Isle of Wight?
EPA lists Isle of Wight as privately owned. The GA state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 36 of the 51 active systems in Liberty County (71%) are also privately owned.
Does Isle of Wight have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in July 2014. The violations listed here began between February 2005 and July 2014. By type: 8 monitoring and reporting, 3 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (9 of them). EPA lists 9 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.
