How does Quality Name Plate compare with other water systems in Hartford County?
By EPA's size categories, Quality Name Plate is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Hartford County has 219 active public water systems.

Across Connecticut, the 2,363 active systems average 1,247 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Quality Name Plate is well below 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. Connecticut has 483 active non-transient non-community water systems, 20% of the state's 2,363 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 2,263 Connecticut systems (96%) list groundwater as their primary source.
