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.

System facts

System ID (PWSID): CO0120005
System type: Community Water System
Population served: 300
Service connections: 104
Ownership: local government
Water source: groundwater (wells)

ELBERT WSD is one of 1,060 community water systems in Colorado in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 300 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 30 entries between 1991 and 2020, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2020.

Of the 30, 27 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 synthetic organic chemicals, inorganic chemicals, and the Total Coliform Rules.
