How does Loenbro Fabrication Facility compare with other water systems in Cascade County?
By EPA's size categories, Loenbro Fabrication Facility is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Cascade County has 98 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 985 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 96,513 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Montana, the 2,378 active systems average 489 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Loenbro Fabrication Facility 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. Montana has 319 active non-transient non-community water systems, 13% of the state's 2,378 active systems. Purchased surface water means the system buys surface water from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 212 Montana systems (8.9%) list purchased surface water as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Loenbro Fabrication Facility?
EPA lists Loenbro Fabrication Facility as privately owned. The MT state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 73 of the 98 active systems in Cascade County (74%) are also privately owned.
