WESTERN CUMBERLAND WATER SYS is one of 3,064 community water systems in Pennsylvania in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 275 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 22 entries between 1976 and 2024, all of which EPA lists as closed.

Of the 22, 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 synthetic organic chemicals, the Consumer Confidence Rule, and the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
