Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Quality Mart is well below that figure.

Does Quality Mart have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in July 2015. The violations listed here began between January 2011 and July 2015. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting and 5 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Public Notice (5 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.
