WORCESTER FIRE DISTRICT 1 is one of 498 community water systems in Vermont in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 350 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 43 entries between 2008 and 2025, all of which EPA lists as closed.
Of the 43, 40 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, inorganic chemicals, and the Total Coliform Rules.
