THE ORCHARD DEVELOPMENT is one of 391 community water systems in Georgia in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 639 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 3 entries between 2008 and 2025, all of which EPA lists as closed.
Of the 3, 1 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 Consumer Confidence Rule, and the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule.
