How does Gts compare with other water systems in St. Lawrence County?

By EPA's size categories, Gts is a very small system (500 people or fewer). St. Lawrence County has 229 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 354 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 81,125 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 Gts 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 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 Gts?

EPA lists Gts 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. 183 of the 229 active systems in St. Lawrence County (80%) are also privately owned.

Does Gts have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2026. The violations listed here began between April 2021 and January 2026. By type: 11 monitoring and 1 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (11 of them). EPA lists 11 as resolved and 1 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.
