BEAUFORT CO SOUTHSIDE is one of 179 community water systems in North Carolina in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, serving 9,369 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 21 entries between 2002 and 2007, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2007.
Of the 21, 19 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 volatile organic chemicals and the Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule.
