Under state law, all public water systems are required to send monthly and annual water monitoring reports to the California State Water Resources Control Board. These documents ensure compliance with all applicable rules and regulations associated with domestic drinking water. In addition, the regulations direct public water systems to provide an annual report to all water customers and is aptly named, the Consumer Confidence Report (CCR).
CONSUMER CONFIDENCE REPORT
This report is due each year by July 1, and contains a summary of measured water quality parameters for the preceding calendar year. One can also obtain a copy of the current CCR from City Hall, at 1232 Washington Street, or at Public Works, 414 Washington Street.
