Any Public and Privately-owned Community and Nonprofit Non-Community water
systems with a completed Source Water Assessment are eligible for funds. A
“community water system” is defined as a public water system that has 15 or more
service connections used by year-round residents, or which regularly serves 25 or
more year-round residents. This includes water systems that are owned privately, by
non-profit or public entities such as a city, district, or port. A “nonprofit non-
community water system” is a public water system that is not a community water
system and that regularly serves at least 25 people (more than 6 months per year)
and is legally recognized under Oregon law as a nonprofit entity.
