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.

LORING DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY Water System

Consumer Confidence Report status

LORING DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY must publish a Consumer Confidence Report — the annual drinking water quality report covering calendar year 2026 — by July 1, 2027.

As of August 1, 2026, EPA's federal records show 1 item for LORING DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY that is open and awaiting resolution. None are health-based violations — open items of this kind are most often monitoring or reporting requirements, not water-safety findings.

Data sourced from the EPA ECHO database (SDWA bulk download), last refreshed August 1, 2026. This is a record-keeping and public-information tool — it does not replace Maine’s official records. Always confirm current status with Maine before making decisions based on this information.

System facts

System ID (PWSID): ME0090915
System type: Community Water System
Population served: 180
Service connections: 72
Ownership: local government
Water source: surface water (rivers, lakes, or reservoirs)

LORING DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY is one of 536 community water systems in Maine in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 180 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 37 entries between 1981 and 2026, of which 1 remains open; none are health-based.

Of the 37, 11 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 the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, inorganic chemicals, and the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
