BRANDENBURG WATER WORKS is one of 209 community water systems in Kentucky in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 2,880 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 25 entries between 1988 and 2017, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2017.
Of the 25, 21 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 inorganic chemicals, the Surface Water Treatment Rules, and the Groundwater Rule.
