What is a Consumer Confidence Report?

It lists the contaminants detected in the system’s water during the year, where the water comes from, and how the results compare with federal limits.

SPARKMAN WATERWORKS is one of 376 community water systems in Arkansas in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,325 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 15 entries between 2007 and 2021, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2021.

The record involves the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule.
