How does Camp Koholowo compare with other water systems in Utah County?
By EPA's size categories, Camp Koholowo is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Utah County has 86 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 8,824 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 758,850 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Utah, the 1,133 active systems average 3,458 people each. Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Camp Koholowo is about twice 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. Utah has 509 active transient non-community water systems, 45% of the state's 1,133 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 898 Utah systems (79%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Camp Koholowo?
EPA lists Camp Koholowo as privately owned. The UT state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 42 of the 86 active systems in Utah County (49%) are also privately owned.
Does Camp Koholowo have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 6 are health-based, and the most recent began in January 2026. The violations listed here began between July 1998 and January 2026. By type: 4 required treatment not met, 4 monitoring and reporting, 2 contaminant level above the legal limit, 1 reporting and 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (4 of them). EPA lists 9 as resolved, 2 as archived and 1 as unaddressed. 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
