How does Osprey compare with other water systems in Boise County?

By EPA's size categories, Osprey is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Boise County has 55 active public water systems. Its population served is about 26% below the county average of 135 people per system, and accounts for 1.3% of the 7,448 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Idaho, the 1,961 active systems average 899 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Osprey is well below that figure.

What does “community water system” mean?

A community water system serves at least 15 connections used by year-round residents, or regularly serves at least 25 year-round residents. Homes, apartments and mobile-home parks are served by these. Idaho has 765 active community water systems, 39% of the state's 1,961 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 1,861 Idaho systems (95%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Osprey?

EPA lists Osprey as privately owned. The ID state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 49 of the 55 active systems in Boise County (89%) are also privately owned.

Does Osprey have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2024. The violations listed here began between January 2023 and January 2024. By type: 12 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Glyphosate (2 of them). EPA lists 12 as archived.
