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.

Water source: groundwater (wells)

WEST CHICAGO is one of 225 community water systems in Illinois in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 25,166 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 21 entries between 1977 and 2005, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2005.

The record involves the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule, the Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
