Information
In 1996, Congress amended the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) that added a provision requiring all community water systems deliver to their customers an annual water quality report (Consumer Confidence Report). The Consumer Confidence Report (CCR) is a document that provides consumers information about the quality of drinking water in an easy to read format. The CCR summarizes information that your water system already collects to comply with Federal and State (TCEQ) regulations. It includes information about the source(s) of water used (i.e., rivers, lakes, reservoirs, or aquifers), chemical contaminants, bacteriological contaminants, compliance with drinking water rules, educational health information, water system contact information and public participation opportunities. TCEQ requirements for the CCR can be found in 30 Texas Administrative Code (TAC) Chapter 290 Subchapter H: Consumer Confidence Reports.
The TCEQ requires every community public water system to provide a CCR to their customers by July 1 of every year, 30 TAC §290.274(a), which includes information from the previous calendar year. These reports are also known as annual water quality reports or drinking water quality reports.
Each community PWS is responsible for ensuring that the report has been distributed and that the information in the report is correct and consistent with the compliance monitoring data previously submitted to the TCEQ, 30 TAC §290.274(c). The water system shall make its CCR available to the public upon request, 30 TAC §290.274(e).
