Consumer Confidence Report
About the Consumer Confidence Report (CCR)
Each year, we publish a Consumer Confidence Report (CCR) to provide our customers with important information about the quality of their drinking water. This report is part of our commitment to transparency, public health, and environmental stewardship.
The CCR is required by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and offers a snapshot of the water quality from the previous calendar year. It includes details about where your drinking water comes from, the results of water quality testing, any contaminants detected and how they compare to regulatory standards, information about health risks, if applicable and educational material for vulnerable populations.
Why We Publish This Report
We want you to feel confident about the safety and quality of your tap water. The CCR helps ensure that our customers are informed about the source of their water and how it is treated and tested. It's part of our mission to deliver safe, clean, and reliable water every day.

Important Health Information
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons, such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by cryptosporidium and other microbiological contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791).
