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): KY0100011
System type: Community Water System
Population served: 44,402
Service connections: 14,684
Ownership: local government
Water source: surface water (rivers, lakes, or reservoirs)

ASHLAND WATER WORKS is among the 15 largest community water systems in Kentucky, serving 44,402 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 68 entries between 1993 and 2018, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2018.

Of the 68, 51 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, the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Surface Water Treatment Rules.
