How does The Light Academy compare with other water systems in Fluvanna County?
By EPA's size categories, The Light Academy is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Fluvanna County has 22 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 955 people per system, and accounts for 0.3% of the 21,002 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Virginia, the 2,420 active systems average 3,122 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so The Light Academy is well below that figure.
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 The Light Academy?
EPA lists The Light Academy 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. 7 of the 22 active systems in Fluvanna County (32%) are also owned by a local government.
Does The Light Academy have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2024. The violations listed here began between December 1993 and January 2024. By type: 8 monitoring and reporting and 4 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (6 of them). EPA lists 8 as resolved, 3 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.
