How does Maxeys compare with other water systems in Oglethorpe County?
By EPA's size categories, Maxeys is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Oglethorpe County has 20 active public water systems, and Maxeys is the 5th-largest of them by population served. Its population served is roughly in line with the county average of 297 people per system, and accounts for 4.7% of the 5,939 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 Maxeys 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 Maxeys?
EPA lists Maxeys as owned by a local government. 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. 4 of the 20 active systems in Oglethorpe County (20%) are also owned by a local government.
Does Maxeys have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in July 2025. The violations listed here began between July 2015 and July 2025. By type: 7 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 3 monitoring and reporting, 1 reporting and 1 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Consumer Confidence Rule (7 of them). EPA lists 8 as resolved, 2 as unaddressed and 2 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.
