What does “non-transient non-community water system” mean?

Vermont has 253 active non-transient non-community water systems, 19% of the state's 1,357 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 1,243 Vermont systems (92%) list groundwater as their primary source.
