Starting this April, the 2018 Water Quality Report will be available online for Baltimore City and County residents to review. This report will reflect that there were no violations of drinking water standards.   

This year’s release of the Water Quality Report, also known as the Consumer Confidence Report, will mark the second year that the Baltimore City Department of Public Works (DPW) has used electronic delivery to distribute its Water Quality Report. Previously, the report was mailed to each customer along with a springtime water bill.

The annual report informs water customers where the City’s drinking water comes from, how the water is treated, what chemicals it contains, and how it meets federal standards for tap water.

Baltimore City and County customers are being notified of the implementation of electronic delivery of the Annual Water Quality report via a message on their water bill. They will see the web address that will take them directly to the report: publicworks.baltimorecity.gov/waterreport.

 On April 1, water customers who want printed copies of the report can call 311 or (410) 396-5352.

Previous years’ reports are also available online at publicworks.baltimorecity.gov/water-quality-reports.
