TOP OF THE WORLD Water System

Consumer Confidence Report status

TOP OF THE WORLD 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 TOP OF THE WORLD 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 New York’s official records. Always confirm current status with New York before making decisions based on this information.

TOP OF THE WORLD is one of 3,919 community water systems in New York in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 132 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 37 entries between 2002 and 2025, of which 1 remains open; none are health-based.

All 37 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 volatile organic chemicals, synthetic organic chemicals, and inorganic chemicals.

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.
