WISCASSET WATER DISTRICT is one of 91 community water systems in Maine in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,970 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 2 entries between 1997 and 2023, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2023.
All 2 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 and the Lead and Copper Rule.
