How does Lakeland Bank compare with other water systems in Passaic County?
By EPA's size categories, Lakeland Bank is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Passaic County has 149 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 3,267 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 486,758 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across New Jersey, the 3,496 active systems average 2,750 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Lakeland Bank is well below that figure.
What does “non-transient non-community water system” mean?
A non-transient non-community water system regularly serves at least 25 of the same people for more than six months a year, but not where they live. Schools, factories, office buildings and hospitals with their own supply are typical examples. New Jersey has 637 active non-transient non-community water systems, 18% of the state's 3,496 active systems. 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 Lakeland Bank?
EPA lists Lakeland Bank as privately owned. The NJ state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 107 of the 149 active systems in Passaic County (72%) are also privately owned.
Does Lakeland Bank have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 11 violations for this system; 2 are health-based, and the most recent began in December 2025. The violations listed here began between July 1992 and December 2025. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting and 2 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Lead and Copper Rule (7 of them). EPA lists 9 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.
