How does Tuxbury Meadows compare with other water systems in Rockingham County?

By EPA's size categories, Tuxbury Meadows is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Rockingham County has 554 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 492 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 272,726 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across New Hampshire, the 2,450 active systems average 508 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Tuxbury Meadows 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. New Hampshire has 706 active community water systems, 29% of the state's 2,450 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 2,374 New Hampshire systems (97%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Tuxbury Meadows?

EPA lists Tuxbury Meadows as privately owned. The NH state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 477 of the 554 active systems in Rockingham County (86%) are also privately owned.

Does Tuxbury Meadows have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in May 2015. The violations listed here began between January 1995 and May 2015. By type: 11 monitoring and reporting and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (4 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.
