How does Hemlock Point compare with other water systems in Pike County?
By EPA's size categories, Hemlock Point is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Pike County has 208 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 391 people per system, and accounts for 0.2% of the 81,402 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Pennsylvania, the 7,217 active systems average 1,741 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Hemlock Point 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. 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 Hemlock Point?
EPA lists Hemlock Point 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. 165 of the 208 active systems in Pike County (79%) are also privately owned.
