MT CARMEL MUN WATER AUTH is one of 298 community water systems in Pennsylvania in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, formerly serving 9,500 people from surface water.
EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 1989; the record below is historical.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 25 entries between 1979 and 1980, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 1980.
All 25 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 inorganic chemicals and synthetic organic chemicals.
