Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Tammany Alternative Center 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. Idaho has 242 active non-transient non-community water systems, 12% 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 Tammany Alternative Center?
EPA lists Tammany Alternative Center as owned by a local government. 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. 6 of the 25 active systems in Nez Perce County (24%) are also owned by a local government.
Does Tammany Alternative Center have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 5 are health-based, and the most recent began in December 2024. The violations listed here began between April 2008 and December 2024. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting, 3 contaminant level above the legal limit, 2 required treatment not met and 2 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (6 of them). EPA lists 7 as archived, 4 as resolved and 1 as unaddressed. 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
