Consumer Confidence Report status

OCEAN SHORES 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 no open violations for OCEAN SHORES WATER DEPT.

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

OCEAN SHORES WATER DEPT is one of 112 community water systems in Washington in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, serving 9,347 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 107 entries between 1979 and 2022, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2022.

Of the 107, 102 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 inorganic chemicals.

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.
