WILMETTE is one of 225 community water systems in Illinois in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 27,087 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 4 entries between 1977 and 1979, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 1979.
All 4 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 inorganic chemicals and the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule.
