VALLEY FORGE SPRINGS is one of 298 community water systems in Pennsylvania in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, formerly serving 7,000 people from groundwater.
EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 1995; the record below is historical.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 16 entries in 1990, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 1990.
All 16 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, inorganic chemicals, and the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule.
