How does Savannah Bend Marina compare with other water systems in Chatham County?

By EPA's size categories, Savannah Bend Marina is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Chatham County has 116 active public water systems.

Georgia has 493 active transient non-community water systems, 21% 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.
