CARBON CLIFF is one of 773 community water systems in Illinois in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 2,134 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 26 entries between 1977 and 2025, all of which EPA lists as closed.
Of the 26, 14 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 the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.

What is a Consumer Confidence Report?

EPA’s revised CCR rule takes effect January 1, 2027, and the first reports in the new format are due July 1, 2027.
