CHERRY LAKE UTILITIES Water System
Consumer Confidence Report status
CHERRY LAKE UTILITIES must publish a Consumer Confidence Report — the annual drinking water quality report covering calendar year 2026 — by July 1, 2027.
As of August 1, 2026, EPA's federal records show 3 items for CHERRY LAKE UTILITIES that are 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.
Data sourced from the EPA ECHO database (SDWA bulk download), last refreshed August 1, 2026. This is a record-keeping and public-information tool — it does not replace Florida’s official records. Always confirm current status with Florida before making decisions based on this information.

CHERRY LAKE UTILITIES is one of 925 community water systems in Florida in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 750 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 53 entries between 1987 and 2025, of which 3 remain open; none are health-based.
Of the 53, 50 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 Total Coliform Rules, the Groundwater Rule, and inorganic chemicals.

Common questions
Is CHERRY LAKE UTILITIES required to publish a Consumer Confidence Report?
- Yes. CHERRY LAKE UTILITIES is a community water system, and federal rules (40 CFR 141 Subpart O) require every community water system to publish a Consumer Confidence Report each year.
When is CHERRY LAKE UTILITIES’s next Consumer Confidence Report due?
- CHERRY LAKE UTILITIES’s next Consumer Confidence Report is due by July 1, 2027. The report covers calendar year 2026.
Does CHERRY LAKE UTILITIES have any open drinking water violations on record?
- As of August 1, 2026, EPA's federal records show 3 items for CHERRY LAKE UTILITIES that are 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.
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.
