How does Biolab, Inc. compare with other water systems in Calcasieu Parish County?
By EPA's size categories, Biolab, Inc. is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Calcasieu Parish County has 72 active public water systems.

Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Biolab, Inc. 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. Louisiana has 125 active non-transient non-community water systems, 11% of the state's 1,121 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 966 Louisiana systems (86%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Biolab, Inc.?
EPA lists Biolab, Inc. as privately owned. The LA state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 52 of the 72 active systems in Calcasieu Parish County (72%) are also privately owned.
Does Biolab, Inc. have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 5 violations for this system; 3 are health-based, and the most recent began in June 2024. The violations listed here began between October 1992 and June 2024. By type: 2 monitoring and reporting, 2 contaminant level above the legal limit and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (3 of them). EPA lists 2 as resolved, 2 as archived and 1 as unaddressed. 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
