How does Wheatland School compare with other water systems in Will 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 Wheatland School 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.

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.

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. 34 of the 236 active systems in Will County (14%) are also under public/private ownership.
