How does Yellow Breeches Ed Center compare with other water systems in Dauphin County?
By EPA's size categories, Yellow Breeches Ed Center is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Dauphin County has 134 active public water systems.

Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Yellow Breeches Ed Center is about half of 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.

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 Yellow Breeches Ed Center?
EPA lists Yellow Breeches Ed Center as under public/private ownership. 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. 19 of the 134 active systems in Dauphin County (14%) are also under public/private ownership.
Does Yellow Breeches Ed Center have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 4 are health-based, and the most recent began in August 2012. The violations listed here began between October 1992 and August 2012. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting, 3 contaminant level above the legal limit, 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (6 of them). EPA lists 10 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.
