QUANTABACOOK WATER DISTRICT is one of 536 community water systems in Maine in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 303 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 6 entries between 1993 and 1997, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 1997.
Of the 6, 5 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 Total Coliform Rules, synthetic organic chemicals, and inorganic chemicals.
