How does Sauce compare with other water systems in Monroe County?

By EPA's size categories, Sauce is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Monroe County has 405 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 446 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 180,497 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Pennsylvania, the 7,217 active systems average 1,741 people each. Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Sauce is well below that figure.

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

A transient non-community water system serves places where people do not stay long, such as gas stations and campgrounds, and regularly serves at least 25 people a day for at least 60 days a year. Pennsylvania has 4,429 active transient non-community water systems, 61% 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 Sauce?

EPA lists Sauce 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. 309 of the 405 active systems in Monroe County (76%) are also privately owned.

Does Sauce have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in April 2026. The violations listed here began between November 2024 and April 2026. By type: 8 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 4 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Public Notice (8 of them). EPA lists 7 as unaddressed, 4 as resolved and 1 as archived. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement. 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.
