Water Quality Snapshot: Accurate Energetic Systems

Accurate Energetic Systems is a private-owned non-transient non-community water system that delivers drinking water to 120 residents in McEwen, Tennessee (Hickman County) through 8 service connections. Its water is drawn from groundwater sources. EPA's Safe Drinking Water Information System records 153 total violations for this system , of which 58 (38%) are health-based, meaning a contaminant exceeded an EPA Maximum Contaminant Level or a required treatment technique failed. A further 95 monitoring and reporting violations are on file. The most recent violation on record dates to 2019.

The most frequently cited contaminant at this system is Coliform (TCR), recorded in 49 violations (MCL, health-based). This system has not yet been sampled under EPA's UCMR5 PFAS monitoring program, so no PFAS detection data is available here.

Across Tennessee, EPA tracks 762 public water systems serving 7,934,203 people, with 43,318 cumulative violations and 9,414 health-based violations on record. About 94% of systems in the state carry at least one violation, and state-wide the average per system is 56.8 violations. Statewide, 93 of 277 UCMR5-tested systems have reported PFAS detections (33.6%).

Accurate Energetic Systems's 153 violations sit above the Tennessee average.

All figures above are sourced directly from EPA SDWIS and UCMR5 public data releases and are updated as EPA publishes new reporting cycles.
