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.

System facts

System ID (PWSID): IL1670600
System type: Community Water System
Population served: 1,600

Water source: surface water (rivers, lakes, or reservoirs)

JEROME is one of 773 community water systems in Illinois in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,600 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 18 entries between 1994 and 2026, all of which EPA lists as closed.

Of the 18, 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 Total Coliform Rules, the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
