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.

Purchased surface water means the system buys surface water from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 191 Ohio systems (5%) list purchased surface water as their primary source.
