KNOXVILLE is one of 773 community water systems in Illinois in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 3,120 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 18 entries between 1977 and 2007, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2007.
Of the 18, 1 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 Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule, the Total Coliform Rules, and inorganic chemicals.
