How does Pacificorp Huntington Plant compare with other water systems in Emery County?
By EPA's size categories, Pacificorp Huntington Plant is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Emery County has 20 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 681 people per system, and accounts for 1.3% of the 13,626 people reported by systems filed under the county.

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 under the influence of surface water is well or spring water that the regulator has found to be affected by nearby surface water, so it is regulated under the surface-water treatment rules. 14 Utah systems (1.2%) list groundwater under influence of surface water as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Pacificorp Huntington Plant?
EPA lists Pacificorp Huntington Plant 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. 5 of the 20 active systems in Emery County (25%) are also privately owned.
Does Pacificorp Huntington Plant have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in November 2025. The violations listed here began between January 2000 and November 2025. By type: 10 monitoring and reporting and 2 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Nitrate (3 of them). EPA lists 8 as resolved and 4 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.
