What does “transient non-community water system” mean?

Oregon has 1,250 active transient non-community water systems, 49% 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 Zig Zag Mtn Farm?

Does Zig Zag Mtn Farm 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 2025. The violations listed here began between September 2018 and January 2025. By type: 8 monitoring and 4 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (8 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.
