POLK CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION Water System
Consumer Confidence Report status
POLK CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION 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 1 item for POLK CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION 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.
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.

POLK CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION is one of 925 community water systems in Florida in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,500 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 43 entries between 1999 and 2026, of which 1 remains open; none are health-based.
Of the 43, 38 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 POLK CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION required to publish a Consumer Confidence Report?
- Yes. POLK CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION 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 POLK CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION’s next Consumer Confidence Report due?
- POLK CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION’s next Consumer Confidence Report is due by July 1, 2027. The report covers calendar year 2026.
Does POLK CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION have any open drinking water violations on record?
- As of August 1, 2026, EPA's federal records show 1 item for POLK CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION 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.
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.
