CRAB ORCHARD REFUGE is one of 1,572 community water systems in Illinois in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 25 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 7 entries between 1993 and 2022, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2022.
Of the 7, 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 the Consumer Confidence Rule, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
