MELTON BISHOP is one of 925 community water systems in Florida in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, formerly serving 2,135 people from groundwater.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2008; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 10 entries between 2002 and 2008, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2008.

Of the 10, 7 are monitoring and reporting requirements — the category that accounts for about four in five of all violations in EPA's national dataset — rather than findings about the water itself. The record involves the Total Coliform Rules, the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
