ADAMS TWP WATER AUTH is one of 757 community water systems in Pennsylvania in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, formerly serving 2,000 people from surface water.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2020; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 12 entries between 1997 and 2018, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2018.

Of the 12, 11 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 the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
