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 Upper Whittemore Water Co?

Does Upper Whittemore Water Co 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 2024. The violations listed here began between September 2013 and August 2024. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting, 3 required treatment not met, 2 monitoring, 1 reporting and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (4 of them). EPA lists 10 as resolved, 1 as unaddressed and 1 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement. 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.
