How does Pioneer Landing compare with other water systems in Johnson County?
By EPA's size categories, Pioneer Landing is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Johnson County has 8 active public water systems, and Pioneer Landing is the 4th-largest of them by population served. Its population served is well below the county average of 1,426 people per system, and accounts for 1.2% of the 11,411 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Tennessee, the 1,383 active systems average 5,780 people each. Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Pioneer Landing is roughly in line with 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. Tennessee has 891 active transient non-community water systems, 64% of the state's 1,383 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 1,038 Tennessee systems (75%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Pioneer Landing?
EPA lists Pioneer Landing as privately owned. The TN state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 5 of the 8 active systems in Johnson County (63%) are also privately owned.
Does Pioneer Landing have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 2 are health-based, and the most recent began in August 2019. The violations listed here began between January 1995 and August 2019. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting, 1 monitoring, 1 contaminant level above the legal limit and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (7 of them). EPA lists 6 as resolved and 6 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.
