How does Edelweiss compare with other water systems in Park County?
By EPA's size categories, Edelweiss is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Park County has 49 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 777 people per system, and accounts for 0.1% of the 38,068 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Wyoming, the 775 active systems average 838 people each. Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Edelweiss is well below that figure.
What does “transient non-community water system” mean?

Wyoming has 352 active transient non-community water systems, 45% of the state's 775 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 585 Wyoming systems (75%) list groundwater as their primary source.
