Indiana has 2,596 active transient non-community water systems, 65% of the state's 3,969 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 3,769 Indiana systems (95%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Frances Slocum Trail Riders?

Does Frances Slocum Trail Riders have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in September 2021. The violations listed here began between October 2009 and September 2021. By type: 6 monitoring and reporting, 4 monitoring, 1 required treatment not met and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (6 of them). EPA lists 11 as resolved and 1 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. 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.
