TONKAWA is one of 511 community water systems in Oklahoma in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 3,299 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 32 entries between 2001 and 2026, of which 5 remain open; none are health-based.

Of the 32, 26 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 synthetic organic chemicals, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Groundwater Rule.

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.
