How does Jefferson Baptist Church compare with other water systems in Marion County?
By EPA's size categories, Jefferson Baptist Church is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Marion County has 192 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 1,921 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 368,811 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Oregon, the 2,536 active systems average 1,587 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Jefferson Baptist Church is well below 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. Oregon has 346 active non-transient non-community water systems, 14% of the state's 2,536 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 2,175 Oregon systems (86%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Jefferson Baptist Church?
EPA lists Jefferson Baptist Church as privately owned. The OR state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 133 of the 192 active systems in Marion County (69%) are also privately owned.
Does Jefferson Baptist Church 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 January 2023 and January 2026. By type: 11 monitoring and reporting and 1 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Groundwater Rule (3 of them). EPA lists 6 as resolved and 6 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.
