How does L & B Resources compare with other water systems in Salt Lake County?
By EPA's size categories, L & B Resources is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Salt Lake County has 77 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 19,034 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 1,465,589 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Utah, the 1,133 active systems average 3,458 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so L & B Resources 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. Utah has 84 active non-transient non-community water systems, 7.4% 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 L & B Resources?
EPA lists L & B Resources 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. 45 of the 77 active systems in Salt Lake County (58%) are also privately owned.
