What does “transient non-community water system” mean?
A transient non-community water system serves places where people do not stay long, such as gas stations and campgrounds, and regularly serves at least 25 people a day for at least 60 days a year. Missouri has 1,103 active transient non-community water systems, 37% of the state's 2,943 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 2,521 Missouri systems (86%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Cooper Creek Resort?
EPA lists Cooper Creek Resort as privately owned. The MO state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 97 of the 112 active systems in Taney County (87%) are also privately owned.
Does Cooper Creek Resort have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 6 are health-based, and the most recent began in December 2020. The violations listed here began between July 1994 and December 2020. By type: 6 contaminant level above the legal limit, 3 monitoring and 3 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (9 of them). EPA lists 9 as resolved and 3 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.
