How does The Corner compare with other water systems in Sullivan County?

By EPA's size categories, The Corner is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Sullivan County has 497 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 264 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 131,057 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 The Corner 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 The Corner?

EPA lists The Corner 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. 449 of the 497 active systems in Sullivan County (90%) are also privately owned.

Does The Corner have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in August 2022. The violations listed here began between August 2001 and August 2022. By type: 5 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 4 monitoring and 3 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (4 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.
