What does “community water system” mean?

Purchased surface water means the system buys surface water from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 331 North Carolina systems (6.5%) list purchased surface water as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Kelly Hill S/D?

Does Kelly Hill S/D have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 5 are health-based, and the most recent began in May 2000. The violations listed here began between July 1985 and May 2000. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting and 5 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (3 of them). EPA lists 9 as resolved and 3 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.
