The CCR is an annual report that the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA) also requires each community that produces water to provide to its customers. This report contains information on the quality of the water delivered by the system. The report also details as simply and accurately as possible any risk to exposure to contaminants which may have been detected in the water during the previous year. By law, the CCR is provided to the community by July 1st annually.
CCRs, also known as annual water quality reports or drinking water quality reports, summarize information regarding water sources (i.e., rivers, lakes, reservoirs, or aquifers), detected contaminants, compliance details, and educational information. Note that the reports are released annually and summarize information for the previous calendar year. Therefore, the most recently released reports will list the previous year in their title.
In particular, this annual water quality report shows the types and amounts of key elements in your drinking water, their likely sources and the maximum contaminant level (MCL) that is considered safe. Our customers may can consume with confidence – the water delivered to their homes meet all of the requirements of the SDWA.
