AQUARION-KENT is one of 84 community water systems in Connecticut in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 817 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 4 entries between 1989 and 2021, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2021.
Of the 4, 3 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 Lead and Copper Rule, the Consumer Confidence Rule, and inorganic chemicals.

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.
