How does Building Block Commons compare with other water systems in Rockingham County?

By EPA's size categories, Building Block Commons is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Rockingham County has 554 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 492 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 272,726 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across New Hampshire, the 2,450 active systems average 508 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Building Block Commons 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. New Hampshire has 453 active non-transient non-community water systems, 18% of the state's 2,450 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 2,374 New Hampshire systems (97%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Building Block Commons?

EPA lists Building Block Commons as privately owned. The NH state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 477 of the 554 active systems in Rockingham County (86%) are also privately owned.

Does Building Block Commons have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 5 are health-based, and the most recent began in July 2014. The violations listed here began between January 1995 and July 2014. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting and 5 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (5 of them). EPA lists 7 as archived and 5 as resolved. 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. 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.
