Facility Name: Meadow Wood Shopping Mall - Big Lake Water System
Location:
Owner/Employer: Spenard Builders Supply - Big Lake
Type of Facility: Small Water System
Classification Level: Untreated

A small water system is a community or non-transient non-community (Class A) water system that serves less than 500 people and less than 100 service connections. Water systems that serve more than 500 people, but less than 15 service connections, are also considered small water systems.

The "untreated" designation means that no treatment chemicals are added to the water. Passive forms of treatment may be used to treat water at a small treated system. Examples of passive treatment include the use of cartridge filters, UV disinfection, or water softeners. Membrane filtration is not considered passive treated. Small systems treating with membrane filtration, chemically aided filtration, or multiple chemicals are classified as water treatment systems.
