SUBJECT:    Definition of Service Connection
SOURCE:    Craig Vogt
An industrial production facility (located on a single site comprised of a contiguous tract of land)
consists of six separate buildings all serviced by the same drinking water source — a private
on-site well.  Does this non-community water system consist of six service connections or one
service connection?
      Response:

      Each building serviced by the same non-community water system is considered to be a
      service connection of that system.  Therefore, the above situation consists of six service
      connections.
