Who owns and regulates Single Stop #5?

Does Single Stop #5 have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 7 violations for this system; 2 are health-based, and the most recent began in April 2023. The violations listed here began between October 2008 and April 2023. By type: 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 2 contaminant level above the legal limit, 2 monitoring and reporting and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (3 of them). EPA lists 6 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.
