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.

System facts

System ID (PWSID): KY0040020
System type: Community Water System
Population served: 1,040
Service connections: 327
Ownership: local government
Water source: groundwater (wells)

BARLOW WATER SYSTEM is one of 209 community water systems in Kentucky in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,040 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 75 entries between 1993 and 2023, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2023.

Of the 75, 65 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 synthetic organic chemicals, volatile organic chemicals, and inorganic chemicals.
