SUMMERTOWN is one of 2,261 community water systems in Georgia in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 210 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 18 entries between 2016 and 2026, all of which EPA lists as closed.

Of the 18, 12 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 Consumer Confidence Rule, and the Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule.
