How does Pine Union School compare with other water systems in Imperial County?
By EPA's size categories, Pine Union School is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Imperial County has 76 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 2,444 people per system, and accounts for 0.1% of the 185,748 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across California, the 7,479 active systems average 5,706 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Pine Union School is about half of that figure.
What does “non-transient non-community water system” mean?
A non-transient non-community water system regularly serves at least 25 of the same people for more than six months a year, but not where they live. Schools, factories, office buildings and hospitals with their own supply are typical examples. California has 1,466 active non-transient non-community water systems, 20% of the state's 7,479 active systems. Surface water means the system draws its water from rivers, lakes, streams or reservoirs. 609 California systems (8.1%) list surface water as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Pine Union School?
EPA lists Pine Union School as owned by a local government. The CA state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 19 of the 76 active systems in Imperial County (25%) are also owned by a local government.
Does Pine Union School 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 2024. The violations listed here began between November 1983 and July 2024. By type: 12 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved is Consumer Confidence Rule. EPA lists 11 as archived and 1 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.
