HIGH KNOB is one of 391 community water systems in Virginia in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,500 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 25 entries between 1994 and 2026, all of which EPA lists as closed.

Of the 25, 23 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, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule.

When is HIGH KNOB’s next Consumer Confidence Report due?

HIGH KNOB’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.
