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. West Virginia has 427 active community water systems, 54% of the state's 791 active systems. Groundwater under the influence of surface water is well or spring water that the regulator has found to be affected by nearby surface water, so it is regulated under the surface-water treatment rules. 22 West Virginia systems (2.8%) list groundwater under influence of surface water as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Russells MHP?
EPA lists Russells MHP as privately owned. The WV state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 28 of the 44 active systems in Jefferson County (64%) are also privately owned.
Does Russells MHP have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in July 2025. The violations listed here began between January 2020 and July 2025. By type: 10 monitoring and reporting and 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminants or rules involved are Consumer Confidence Rule, Public Notice, Total trihalomethanes (TTHM) and 1,1,2-Trichloroethane. EPA lists 10 as archived and 2 as resolved. 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. 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.
