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.

EPA’s revised CCR rule takes effect January 1, 2027, and the first reports in the new format are due July 1, 2027.
