GINGERCAKE ACRES is one of 4,942 community water systems in North Carolina in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 270 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 26 entries between 1980 and 2025, of which 1 remains open; none are health-based.
Of the 26, 25 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 inorganic chemicals, the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
