How does Newco Metals compare with other water systems in Madison County?
By EPA's size categories, Newco Metals is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Madison County has 48 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 2,071 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 99,423 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Indiana, the 3,969 active systems average 1,456 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Newco Metals 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. Indiana has 603 active non-transient non-community water systems, 15% of the state's 3,969 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 3,769 Indiana systems (95%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Newco Metals?
EPA lists Newco Metals as privately owned. The IN state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 36 of the 48 active systems in Madison County (75%) are also privately owned.
Does Newco Metals have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in March 2026. The violations listed here began between January 2025 and March 2026. By type: 11 monitoring and 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (11 of them). 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.
