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. Pennsylvania has 1,026 active non-transient non-community water systems, 14% of the state's 7,217 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 6,632 Pennsylvania systems (92%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Goods Store?

EPA lists Goods Store as privately owned. The PA state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 292 of the 402 active systems in Lancaster County (73%) are also privately owned.

Does Goods Store have drinking water violations?

EPA's records list 9 violations for this system; 1 is health-based, and the most recent began in March 2024. The violations listed here began between December 1989 and March 2024. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting, 2 reporting, 1 monitoring and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (3 of them). EPA lists 7 as resolved and 2 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.
