Transient non-community water system

Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-028540

  1. 1. A type of public water system that provides water in a place - such as a gas station or campground - where people do not remain for long periods of time. These systems do not have to test or treat their water for contaminants that pose long-term health risks, because fewer than 25 people drink the water over a long period. They still must test their water for microbes and several chemicals.

    2. Non-community water system that does not regularly serve at least 25 of the same persons over six months per year.

    3. A type of public water system that provides water in a place - such as a gas station or campground - where people do not remain for long periods of time. These systems do not have to test or treat their water for contaminants that pose long-term health risks, because fewer than 25 people drink the water over a long period. They still must test their water for microbes and several chemicals. (See public water system.)

  2. 1. A public water system which provides water in a place such as a gas station or campground where people do not remain for long periods of time. These systems do not have to test or treat their water for contaminants which pose long-term health risks because fewer than 25 of the same people drink the water over a long period. They still must test their water for microbes and several chemicals posing short-term health risk.

    2. A water system which provides water in a place such as a gas station or campground where people do not remain for long periods of time. These systems do not have to test or treat their water for contaminants which pose long-term health risks because fewer than 25 people drink the water over a long period. They still must test their water for microbes and several chemicals.

  3. Water systems that are not community systems and serve 25 non-resident persons per day for 6 months or less per year. Transient non-community systems typically are restaurants, hotels, large stores, etc.
