What does “transient non-community water system” mean?

Washington has 1,913 active transient non-community water systems, 41% of the state's 4,705 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 4,370 Washington systems (93%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Does Rainbow Beach Resort have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in September 2025. The violations listed here began between April 2024 and September 2025. By type: 7 monitoring, 2 monitoring and reporting, 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 1 reporting and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (9 of them). EPA lists 9 as resolved, 2 as archived and 1 as unaddressed. 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. 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
