Is COLUMBIA WATER CO required to publish a Consumer Confidence Report?

Yes. COLUMBIA WATER CO is a community water system, and federal rules (40 CFR 141 Subpart O) require every community water system to publish a Consumer Confidence Report each year.

When is COLUMBIA WATER CO’s next Consumer Confidence Report due?

COLUMBIA WATER CO’s next Consumer Confidence Report is due by July 1, 2027. The report covers calendar year 2026.

What is a Consumer Confidence Report?

A Consumer Confidence Report (CCR) is the annual drinking water quality report that community water systems must provide to the people they serve. It lists the contaminants detected in the system’s water during the year, where the water comes from, and how the results compare with federal limits. EPA’s revised CCR rule takes effect January 1, 2027, and the first reports in the new format are due July 1, 2027.

COLUMBIA WATER CO Water System

Consumer Confidence Report status

COLUMBIA WATER CO must publish a Consumer Confidence Report — the annual drinking water quality report covering calendar year 2026 — by July 1, 2027.

As of August 1, 2026, EPA's federal records show no open violations for COLUMBIA WATER CO.

Data sourced from the EPA ECHO database (SDWA bulk download), last refreshed August 1, 2026. This is a record-keeping and public-information tool — it does not replace Pennsylvania’s official records. Always confirm current status with Pennsylvania before making decisions based on this information.

System facts

System ID (PWSID): PA7360123
System type: Community Water System
Population served: 25,200
Service connections: 10,648
Ownership: privately owned
Water source: surface water (rivers, lakes, or reservoirs)

COLUMBIA WATER CO is one of 175 community water systems in Pennsylvania in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 25,200 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 123 entries between 1982 and 2026, all of which EPA lists as closed.

Of the 123, 113 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 volatile organic chemicals, synthetic organic chemicals, and inorganic chemicals.

What is a Consumer Confidence Report?: A Consumer Confidence Report (CCR) is the annual drinking water quality report that community water systems must provide to the people they serve. It lists the contaminants detected in the system’s water during the year, where the water comes from, and how the results compare with federal limits. EPA’s revised CCR rule takes effect January 1, 2027, and the first reports in the new format are due July 1, 2027.
