BRERETON MANOR RETIREMENT HOME is one of 3,064 community water systems in Pennsylvania in the 500 or fewer people size category, formerly serving 30 people from groundwater.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2023; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 44 entries between 1988 and 2023, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2023.

Of the 44, 36 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 Groundwater Rule, synthetic organic chemicals, and volatile organic chemicals.
