How does Christendom College compare with other water systems in Warren County?
By EPA's size categories, Christendom College is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Warren County has 29 active public water systems. Its population served is about 59% below the county average of 855 people per system, and accounts for 1.4% of the 24,802 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 Christendom College is about 19% 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 Christendom College?
EPA lists Christendom College 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. 26 of the 29 active systems in Warren County (90%) are also privately owned.
Does Christendom College have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 5 are health-based, and the most recent began in November 2006. The violations listed here began between July 1992 and November 2006. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting, 4 contaminant level above the legal limit and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (11 of them). EPA lists 8 as archived and 4 as resolved. 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. 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.
