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 type: Community Water System
Population served: 1,291
Service connections: 537

Water source: groundwater (wells)

LACENTER MUNICIPAL WATER CO is one of 209 community water systems in Kentucky in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,291 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 54 entries between 1993 and 2018, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2018.

The record involves synthetic organic chemicals, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule.
