How does Bcj&R compare with other water systems in Mercer County?
By EPA's size categories, Bcj&R is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Mercer County has 97 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 3,340 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 323,956 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across New Jersey, the 3,496 active systems average 2,750 people each. Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Bcj&R is well below that figure.
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. New Jersey has 2,277 active transient non-community water systems, 65% of the state's 3,496 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 3,313 New Jersey systems (95%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Bcj&R?
EPA lists Bcj&R as privately owned. The NJ state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 74 of the 97 active systems in Mercer County (76%) are also privately owned.
Does Bcj&R have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2021. The violations listed here began between July 2006 and January 2021. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting, 1 reporting, 1 monitoring and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Lead and Copper Rule (4 of them). EPA lists 9 as resolved, 2 as archived and 1 as unaddressed. 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
