How does Sweet Pea Childcare compare with other water systems in York County?
By EPA's size categories, Sweet Pea Childcare is a very small system (500 people or fewer). York County has 188 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 877 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 164,945 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Maine, the 1,862 active systems average 503 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Sweet Pea Childcare 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. Maine has 385 active non-transient non-community water systems, 21% of the state's 1,862 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 1,780 Maine systems (96%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Sweet Pea Childcare?
EPA lists Sweet Pea Childcare as privately owned. The ME state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 161 of the 188 active systems in York County (86%) are also privately owned.
