How does Eddies Cove compare with other water systems in Oswego County?
By EPA's size categories, Eddies Cove is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Oswego County has 163 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 614 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 100,137 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 Eddies Cove is about half of 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 York has 5,182 active transient non-community water systems, 63% of the state's 8,167 active systems. Groundwater under the influence of surface water is well or spring water that the regulator has found to be affected by nearby surface water, so it is regulated under the surface-water treatment rules. 241 New York systems (3%) list groundwater under influence of surface water as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Eddies Cove?
EPA lists Eddies Cove as privately owned. The NY state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 136 of the 163 active systems in Oswego County (83%) are also privately owned.
