How does Colts Neck Pub compare with other water systems in Monmouth County?
By EPA's size categories, Colts Neck Pub is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Monmouth County has 288 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 2,486 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 715,906 people reported by systems filed under the county.

Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Colts Neck Pub is about half of that figure.

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 Colts Neck Pub?

Does Colts Neck Pub have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in July 2023. The violations listed here began between January 2022 and July 2023. By type: 6 reporting, 5 monitoring and 1 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (11 of them). EPA lists 10 as resolved, 1 as unaddressed 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement. 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.
