What Indiana American Water - Somerset filed with IFA about the water it produced and the water it billed for, 2023–2023 — and what the filing does and does not let anyone verify.

Apparent loss is valued at this utility's own reported retail price of water. Real loss is NOT included — IFA publishes a variable production cost whose unit it does not declare, so no dollar figure is put on the leaked water. The real recoverable total is higher than this by an amount this filing does not let anyone state.

Balance check
inapplicable
IFA derives water losses from system input minus authorized consumption, so this decomposition holds by construction.

What the record shows

24.1% non-revenue water in FY2023, higher than 55% of the 430 Indiana systems that filed that year.

Compliance record

2 violations on EPA's record for this system as of 2026Q2. 0 resolved, 2 archived, and 0 still open.

Nothing on the record is open as of 2026Q2.

Counted as distinct violations, not as rows: EPA's export carries one row per enforcement action taken against a violation, so a row count would multiply this system's record several times over. A violation here is a breach of a reporting, monitoring or contaminant-level rule as reported to EPA — it is not a measurement of the water, and this site has none.

What is missing from this record, and why

IFA published a filing for Indiana American Water - Somerset that this page does not show: FY2019. Indiana American Water - Somerset did file, and the filing is in IFA's published results.

It is absent here because two or more identifiers in one cell — a combined filing covering several systems, filed as IN5285002 + IN5277005. Publishing it under that identifier would attribute this utility's water balance to a different named system, and deciding which system a contradicting filing belongs to is not a decision this pipeline is allowed to make. Read the gap as ours, not as a utility that stopped reporting.

IFA derives water losses from system input minus authorized consumption, so these parts sum to the whole on every filing. What a filing can get wrong is which of these numbers were measured.
