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. Massachusetts has 246 active non-transient non-community water systems, 15% of the state's 1,636 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 1,354 Massachusetts systems (83%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Hilltown Community Development Corp?

The MA state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 62 of the 94 active systems in Hampshire County (66%) are also privately owned.
Does Hilltown Community Development Corp have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 8 violations for this system; 7 are health-based, and the most recent began in July 2020. The violations listed here began between January 2005 and July 2020. By type: 6 contaminant level above the legal limit, 1 monitoring and reporting and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Nitrate (6 of them).
