How does Black Horse Manor compare with other water systems in Atlantic County?
By EPA's size categories, Black Horse Manor is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Atlantic County has 195 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 2,320 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 452,313 people reported by systems filed under the county.

Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 3,313 New Jersey systems (95%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Black Horse Manor?

Does Black Horse Manor have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in April 2025. The violations listed here began between July 2010 and April 2025. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting, 2 reporting and 1 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (3 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.
