How does Windmill Nursery compare with other water systems in Washington Parish County?
By EPA's size categories, Windmill Nursery is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Washington Parish County has 26 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 1,318 people per system, and accounts for 0.3% of the 34,265 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Louisiana, the 1,121 active systems average 4,685 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Windmill Nursery 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 Windmill Nursery?
EPA lists Windmill Nursery 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. 14 of the 26 active systems in Washington Parish County (54%) are also privately owned.
Does Windmill Nursery 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 2024. The violations listed here began between July 2010 and January 2024. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting, 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Lead and Copper Rule (6 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.
