What is a Consumer Confidence Report?

A Consumer Confidence Report (CCR) is the annual drinking water quality report that community water systems must provide to the people they serve. 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. EPA’s revised CCR rule takes effect January 1, 2027, and the first reports in the new format are due July 1, 2027.

As of August 1, 2026, EPA's federal records show 1 item for DEER WATER ASSOCIATION that is open and awaiting resolution. None are health-based violations — open items of this kind are most often monitoring or reporting requirements, not water-safety findings.

System facts

System ID (PWSID): AR0000670
System type: Community Water System
Population served: 938
Service connections: 375
Ownership: local government
Water source: surface water (rivers, lakes, or reservoirs)

DEER WATER ASSOCIATION is one of 376 community water systems in Arkansas in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 938 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 52 entries between 1994 and 2025, of which 1 remains open; none are health-based.

Of the 52, 5 are monitoring and reporting requirements — the category that accounts for about four in five of all violations in EPA's national dataset — rather than findings about the water itself. The record involves the Surface Water Treatment Rules, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
