How does Zuni compare with other water systems in Isle of Wight County?
By EPA's size categories, Zuni is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Isle of Wight County has 34 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 765 people per system, and accounts for 0.3% of the 26,002 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Virginia, the 2,420 active systems average 3,122 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Zuni is well below that figure.
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. Virginia has 844 active community water systems, 35% 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 Zuni?
EPA lists Zuni 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. 10 of the 34 active systems in Isle of Wight County (29%) are also owned by a local government.
Does Zuni have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 9 violations for this system; 2 are health-based, and the most recent began in July 2010. The violations listed here began between November 1991 and July 2010. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting and 2 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (6 of them). EPA lists 5 as resolved and 4 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.
