What is a common characteristic of water supplies categorized as Transient Non-Community?

Transient Non-Community water supplies are defined by their usage patterns rather than the permanence of their user base. These water systems are typically designed to serve individuals who are not permanent residents. This includes facilities such as campgrounds, gas stations, and other transient facilities where people gather for a short duration.

The key aspect of these systems is that they provide water to a fluctuating population, which can vary greatly from day to day or season to season, rather than a stable group of residents. Campgrounds, for instance, may see a large number of visitors during holidays but little to no use during off-peak times. This characteristic of serving a temporary user base is what sets Transient Non-Community water systems apart from more permanent water supply systems that cater to long-term residents or agricultural needs.

The other options reflect different characteristics: permanent users align more with Community water systems, agricultural systems focus on farming needs, and long-term residency is more associated with systems that serve consistent populations, further distinguishing Transient Non-Community supplies.
