How does Creeds Elementary School compare with other water systems in Virginia?
By EPA's size categories, Creeds Elementary School is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Across Virginia, the 2,420 active systems average 3,122 people each.

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. Virginia has 443 active non-transient non-community water systems, 18% of the state's 2,420 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 2,089 Virginia systems (86%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Creeds Elementary School?
EPA lists Creeds Elementary School as owned by a local government. The VA state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act.
Does Creeds Elementary School have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 10 violations for this system; 4 are health-based, and the most recent began in November 2022. The violations listed here began between June 1979 and November 2022. By type: 4 contaminant level above the legal limit, 3 monitoring and 3 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (5 of them). EPA lists 7 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.
