Restaurants, Resorts, Campgrounds (Transient)
Noncommunity Public Water Supply
The information on this page is for facilities that serve at least 25 people at least 60 days of the year, but do not serve the same 25 people over six months of the year.
This is considered a transient water supply. These facilities will generally be tested on an annual basis for bacteria and nitrates. If there are issues with the water quality, the testing may increase.
