Templates for Preparing Your Consumer Confidence Report

How to access your water system's 2010 CCR template. Instructions for using this file to produce the wording of your actual CCR.

updated link Note: The CCR templates are now available online.

Before using the online template, please review the 2010 Consumer Confidence Report Update.

Every community public water system (PWS) must prepare this annual report of drinking water quality. As a convenience, we provide templates based on data reported to us in the previous year, and up to five years prior for less frequent monitoring if required. All water systems are responsible for assuring accuracy of the data presented in their annual Consumer Confidence Report.

This year our CCR support service provider, the University of Texas at Arlington's Center for Environmental Excellence, is providing additional web support for the 2010 CCR templates. To access your template: 

  1. Go to the CCR Generator page on TCEQ's Drinking Water Watch and enter in the PWS ID for your water system.
  2. Check the data in your PWS’s template to make sure it is correct.
  3. Follow the instructions to complete your CCR.
  4. If your PWS treats surface water or groundwater under the influence of surface water, add data collected by the plant staff.
  5. Distribute the completed CCR to your customers:
    • If your PWS serves no more than 500 customers and has not violated any TCEQ rules, regulations, or standards, then you may simply notify your customers that the CCR is available from you on request. You may include this notice in each customer’s water bill.
    • All other community water systems must deliver the completed CCR directly to their customers—for example, by including a copy of the CCR itself in a monthly bill. If you have any questions about delivery options, contact us.
  6. Complete the certificate of delivery and no later than July 1, 2011, submit it to us with a copy of the CCR distributed to your customers.

Contact us if you have any questions.
