BAINBRIDGE WATER AUTHORITY is one of 757 community water systems in Pennsylvania in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,200 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 49 entries between 1988 and 2023, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2023.
Of the 49, 48 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, inorganic chemicals, and the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
