PAWC POCONO MTN LAKE FOREST is one of 3,064 community water systems in Pennsylvania in the 500 or fewer people size category, formerly serving 203 people from groundwater.
EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2025; the record below is historical.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 51 entries between 1994 and 2017, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2017.
Of the 51, 46 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, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Groundwater Rule.
