How does Cadet Motel compare with other water systems in Orange County?

By EPA's size categories, Cadet Motel is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Orange County has 451 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 921 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 415,298 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across New York, the 8,167 active systems average 2,374 people each. Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Cadet Motel is well below that figure.

What does “transient non-community water system” mean?

New York has 5,182 active transient non-community water systems, 63% of the state's 8,167 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 7,096 New York systems (87%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Cadet Motel?

Does Cadet Motel have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in May 2025. The violations listed here began between July 2018 and May 2025. By type: 6 monitoring, 3 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 2 monitoring and reporting and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (6 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.
