## Summary

Usa-fort Stewart Main reported **60.7% non-revenue water** in FY2025, higher than 97% of the 228 Georgia systems that filed that year. **The series is not stable enough to act on**: it moves 17.6 points a year against a Georgia median of 4.9. The figure is trending worse across the record.

**The water balance is not a check here.** EPD derives water losses from system input minus authorized consumption, so this decomposition holds by construction.

The Balance column carries more than one verdict on this system. `inapplicable` is a statement about the
source rather than the utility: EPD derives water losses from system input minus
authorized consumption, so the identity holds on every filing where it publishes all the components.
`insufficient` means the filing does not publish enough components to decompose at all. Neither is a pass or a
failure.

## How the cost figure is built

Apparent loss is water delivered and never billed, so it is valued at the retail rate: revenue, recoverable inside a
budget year without capital work. Real loss is valued at variable production cost, because eliminating a leak saves
treatment and pumping rather than retail price. Where the filed audit carries its own cost of losses — as
EPD's export does — those figures are used directly and no rate of ours enters the
calculation.

The FY2025 loss figure: (system input − billed authorized) ÷ system input × 100, from system input volume at `2025 Water Audits !H224`; billed authorized consumption at `2025 Water Audits !I224` — in `data/archive/ga-epd-water-loss/2026-09-06-69903a9418bc.xlsx` (sha256 69903a9418bc6d60, retrieved 2026-09-06, https://epd.georgia.gov/document/document/2025-water-audits/download), read by `src/scrape/ga.ts` at 75f8059103ee.

Volumes are normalized to million gallons on ingest; the export reports them in the unit each filing states.

Figures are as filed unless stated otherwise. If a number here is wrong it is wrong in the filing or wrong in
our reading of it, and both are worth knowing: ammar@municorn.us

## Compliance record

Violations on EPA's record as of 2026Q2: **12** (6 health-based).
Resolved: 6. Archived: 6. **Still open: 0.**

Nothing on the record is open as of 2026Q2.

Counted as distinct violations rather than as rows: EPA's export carries one row per enforcement action taken
against a violation. A violation is a breach of a reporting, monitoring or contaminant-level rule as reported
to EPA; it is not a measurement of the water.
