SHELDON SPRINGS WATER SYSTEM is one of 498 community water systems in Vermont in the 500 or fewer people size category, formerly serving 330 people from groundwater.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2019; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 23 entries between 1992 and 2006, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2006.

Of the 23, 22 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, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
