Michigan has 1,402 active non-transient non-community water systems, 13% of the state's 10,599 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 10,214 Michigan systems (96%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Fivecap-N Manistee Child Dev Ctr?
EPA lists Fivecap-N Manistee Child Dev Ctr as privately owned.

Does Fivecap-N Manistee Child Dev Ctr have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 2 are health-based, and the most recent began in October 2022. The violations listed here began between January 2005 and October 2022. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting, 3 monitoring and 2 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (3 of them). EPA lists 10 as resolved 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.
