Ohio has 2,282 active transient non-community water systems, 59% of the state's 3,854 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 3,446 Ohio systems (89%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Camp Luz?

Does Camp Luz have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 3 are health-based, and the most recent began in March 2024. The violations listed here began between October 2004 and March 2024. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting, 3 contaminant level above the legal limit, 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 2 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (8 of them). EPA lists 9 as resolved, 2 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.
