How does Principle Business Enterprises compare with other water systems in Wood County?

Across Ohio, the 3,854 active systems average 2,767 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Principle Business Enterprises is about half of that figure.
What does “non-transient non-community water system” mean?
A non-transient non-community water system regularly serves at least 25 of the same people for more than six months a year, but not where they live. Schools, factories, office buildings and hospitals with their own supply are typical examples. Ohio has 544 active non-transient non-community water systems, 14% of the state's 3,854 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 3,446 Ohio systems (89%) list groundwater as their primary source.

EPA lists Principle Business Enterprises as privately owned. The OH state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 37 of the 50 active systems in Wood County (74%) are also privately owned.
