How does Sunland Sites compare with other water systems in Chelan County?
By EPA's size categories, Sunland Sites is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Chelan County has 131 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 931 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 121,966 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Washington, the 4,705 active systems average 2,172 people each. Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Sunland Sites is well below that figure.
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.
Who owns and regulates Sunland Sites?

Does Sunland Sites have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2008. The violations listed here began between October 1979 and January 2008. By type: 12 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (8 of them). EPA lists 9 as archived and 3 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.
