How does Ogden Dunes Water compare with other water systems in Porter County?
By EPA's size categories, Ogden Dunes Water is a small system (501 to 3,300 people). Porter County has 81 active public water systems, and Ogden Dunes Water is the 6th-largest of them by population served. Its population served is about 48% above the county average of 748 people per system, and accounts for 1.8% of the 60,622 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Indiana, the 3,969 active systems average 1,456 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Ogden Dunes Water 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. Indiana has 770 active community water systems, 19% of the state's 3,969 active systems. Purchased surface water means the system buys surface water from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 82 Indiana systems (2.1%) list purchased surface water as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Ogden Dunes Water?
EPA lists Ogden Dunes Water as owned by a local government. 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. 10 of the 81 active systems in Porter County (12%) are also owned by a local government.
Does Ogden Dunes Water have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2025. The violations listed here began between July 2020 and January 2025. By type: 6 monitoring and reporting, 4 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 1 required treatment not met and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total trihalomethanes (TTHM) (3 of them). EPA lists 10 as resolved and 2 as archived. 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. 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.
