How does Peaceful Pathways compare with other water systems in Kendall County?
By EPA's size categories, Peaceful Pathways is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Kendall County has 47 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 1,747 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 82,105 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Illinois, the 3,872 active systems average 3,204 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Peaceful Pathways is well below that figure.
What does “non-transient non-community water system” mean?
A non-transient non-community water system regularly serves at least 25 of the same people for more than six months a year, but not where they live. Schools, factories, office buildings and hospitals with their own supply are typical examples. Illinois has 396 active non-transient non-community water systems, 10% of the state's 3,872 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 2,808 Illinois systems (73%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Peaceful Pathways?
EPA lists Peaceful Pathways as privately owned. The IL state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 33 of the 47 active systems in Kendall County (70%) are also privately owned.
Does Peaceful Pathways have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2026. The violations listed here began between January 2025 and January 2026. By type: 11 monitoring and reporting and 1 monitoring. The contaminants or rules involved are Revised Total Coliform Rule, Dichloromethane, 1,2-Dichloropropane and Ethylbenzene. EPA lists 11 as resolved and 1 as archived. Resolved means at least one resolving action is on record: the system returned to compliance, the rule no longer applies, or no further action was needed. Archived means the violation was not marked resolved but is more than five years past the end of the noncompliance period, so it no longer counts toward current compliance status.
