How does Huber Plant compare with other water systems in Halifax County?
By EPA's size categories, Huber Plant is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Halifax County has 20 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 664 people per system, and accounts for 1% of the 13,272 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 Huber Plant 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 Huber Plant?
EPA lists Huber Plant 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. 9 of the 20 active systems in Halifax County (45%) are also privately owned.
Does Huber Plant have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 5 violations for this system; 4 are health-based, and the most recent began in January 2002. The violations listed here began between September 1997 and January 2002. By type: 3 contaminant level above the legal limit, 1 monitoring and reporting and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (3 of them). EPA lists 3 as archived and 2 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.
