Transient Non Community Water Systems

In Vermont, people assume the drinking water they consume while recreating, dining out, traveling, and staying overnight at public facilities is safe to drink. To make this assumption a reality, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Vermont Water Supply Division (WSD) have guidelines to help facilities serving the public provide safe drinking water.  The guidelines apply to transient non-community (TNC) water systems . This site describes the requirements for TNCs.  It also provides information to help TNC personnel better understand the components of their drinking water system and how to operate and maintain it.
