PAYSON is one of 773 community water systems in Illinois in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,386 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 14 entries between 1977 and 2017, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2017.

Of the 14, 10 are monitoring and reporting requirements — the category that accounts for about four in five of all violations in EPA's national dataset — rather than findings about the water itself. The record involves the Total Coliform Rules, the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.

When is PAYSON’s next Consumer Confidence Report due?

PAYSON’s next Consumer Confidence Report is due by July 1, 2027. The report covers calendar year 2026.

Does PAYSON have any open drinking water violations on record?

What is a Consumer Confidence Report?

A Consumer Confidence Report (CCR) is the annual drinking water quality report that community water systems must provide to the people they serve. It lists the contaminants detected in the system’s water during the year, where the water comes from, and how the results compare with federal limits. EPA’s revised CCR rule takes effect January 1, 2027, and the first reports in the new format are due July 1, 2027.
