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. Vermont has 253 active non-transient non-community water systems, 19% of the state's 1,357 active systems. Purchased groundwater means the system buys groundwater from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 15 Vermont systems (1.1%) list purchased groundwater as their primary source.

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. 5 of the 164 active systems in Windsor County (3%) are also owned by the federal government.
