System record
How does Redeemer Lutheran Church compare with other water systems in Sussex County?
By EPA's size categories, Redeemer Lutheran Church is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Sussex County has 476 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 425 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 202,506 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 Redeemer Lutheran Church 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 Redeemer Lutheran Church?
EPA lists Redeemer Lutheran Church 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. 372 of the 476 active systems in Sussex County (78%) are also privately owned.
Does Redeemer Lutheran Church have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 4 are health-based, and the most recent began in July 2025. The violations listed here began between April 2015 and July 2025. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting, 4 contaminant level above the legal limit and 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Nitrate (4 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.
