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.
Who owns and regulates Sugarbush Resort Admin Complex?

The VT state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 94 of the 125 active systems in Washington County (75%) are also privately owned.

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 2 are health-based, and the most recent began in August 2012. The violations listed here began between January 2001 and August 2012. By type: 10 monitoring and reporting and 2 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (5 of them).
