How does Spring Valley Apartments compare with other water systems in Camden County?
By EPA's size categories, Spring Valley Apartments is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Camden County has 226 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 250 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 56,563 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Missouri, the 2,943 active systems average 2,049 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Spring Valley Apartments 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. Missouri has 1,612 active community water systems, 55% of the state's 2,943 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 2,521 Missouri systems (86%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Spring Valley Apartments?
EPA lists Spring Valley Apartments as privately owned. The MO state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 206 of the 226 active systems in Camden County (91%) are also privately owned.
Does Spring Valley Apartments 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 2025. The violations listed here began between January 1995 and July 2025. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting, 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 1 reporting and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (4 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. 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.
