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.

FRANKLIN WATER DEPT Water System

Consumer Confidence Report status

FRANKLIN WATER DEPT 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 2 items for FRANKLIN WATER DEPT that are open and awaiting resolution. None are health-based violations — open items of this kind are most often monitoring or reporting requirements, not water-safety findings.

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 Tennessee’s official records. Always confirm current status with Tennessee before making decisions based on this information.

System facts

System ID (PWSID): TN0000246
System type: Community Water System
Population served: 77,222
Service connections: 27,001
Ownership: local government
Water source: surface water (rivers, lakes, or reservoirs)

FRANKLIN WATER DEPT is among the 19 largest community water systems in Tennessee, serving 77,222 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 79 entries between 1993 and 2025, of which 2 remain open; none are health-based.

Of the 79, 58 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, inorganic chemicals, and the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.

Common questions

Is FRANKLIN WATER DEPT required to publish a Consumer Confidence Report?: Yes. FRANKLIN WATER DEPT 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 FRANKLIN WATER DEPT’s next Consumer Confidence Report due?: FRANKLIN WATER DEPT’s next Consumer Confidence Report is due by July 1, 2027. The report covers calendar year 2026.
Does FRANKLIN WATER DEPT have any open drinking water violations on record?: As of August 1, 2026, EPA's federal records show 2 items for FRANKLIN WATER DEPT that are open and awaiting resolution. None are health-based violations — open items of this kind are most often monitoring or reporting requirements, not water-safety findings.
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.
