How does Battlefield Farms compare with other water systems in Orange County?
By EPA's size categories, Battlefield Farms is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Orange County has 19 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 1,289 people per system, and accounts for 0.5% of the 24,484 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Virginia, the 2,420 active systems average 3,122 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Battlefield Farms is well below that figure.
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. Virginia has 443 active non-transient non-community water systems, 18% of the state's 2,420 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 2,089 Virginia systems (86%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Battlefield Farms?
EPA lists Battlefield Farms as privately owned. The VA state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 10 of the 19 active systems in Orange County (53%) are also privately owned.
