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.

System facts

System ID (PWSID): KY0200018
System type: Community Water System
Population served: 1,227
Service connections: 396
Ownership: local government
Water source: groundwater (wells)

BARDWELL CITY UTILITIES is one of 209 community water systems in Kentucky in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,227 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 70 entries between 1993 and 2003, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2003.

The record involves volatile organic chemicals, synthetic organic chemicals, and the Consumer Confidence Rule.
