What does “community water system” mean?
A community water system serves at least 15 connections used by year-round residents, or regularly serves at least 25 year-round residents. Homes, apartments and mobile-home parks are served by these. Ohio has 1,028 active community water systems, 27% of the state's 3,854 active systems. Purchased surface water means the system buys surface water from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 191 Ohio systems (5%) list purchased surface water as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Marblehead Village?
EPA lists Marblehead Village as owned by a local government. The OH state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 8 of the 36 active systems in Ottawa County (22%) are also owned by a local government.
Does Marblehead Village have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 4 are health-based, and the most recent began in September 2025. The violations listed here began between August 1994 and September 2025. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting, 3 contaminant level above the legal limit, 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 1 monitoring and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (4 of them). EPA lists 10 as resolved, 1 as archived and 1 as unaddressed. 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
