SHARPSBURG BORO WATER DEPT is one of 298 community water systems in Pennsylvania in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, formerly serving 3,900 people from groundwater.
EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2017; the record below is historical.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 7 entries between 2004 and 2016, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2016.
Of the 7, 4 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 Lead and Copper Rule, and the Consumer Confidence Rule.
