Lead service line inventory

Service line inventory still in progress

Oak Ridge Sanitary District (PWS) reports 0 confirmed lead service lines, 0 non-lead, 117 unknown (total 117) in its Illinois EPA Service Line Material Inventory (reporting year 2020). EPA's Lead and Copper Rule Revisions treat unknown and galvanized-requiring-replacement lines as lead for notification and replacement scheduling until verified.

  • 0 confirmed lead service lines
  • 0 galvanized requiring replacement (LCRI treats these as lead)
  • 117 unknown (100.0% of total)
  • 0 confirmed non-lead (0.0%)
  • 117 total service lines in the system
What to do if your service line might be lead
  1. Ask your utility to check the service-line classification for your specific address. Many utilities provide a public address-lookup tool linked from the inventory page.
  2. Get on the replacement queue. Under the LCRI, utilities must replace all lead and galvanized-requiring- replacement lines within 10 years (clock generally starts November 2027). Some prioritize requests.
  3. Until the line is replaced: flush the tap 30 seconds after long stagnation, use cold water for drinking and cooking, and consider an NSF/ANSI 53 lead-rated tap filter.
  4. Talk to your clinician about a blood lead test for anyone in the home, especially a pregnant person or a child under 6. Lead in drinking water guide.

Lead and copper test results

The most recent measurement per contaminant from EPA's Lead and Copper Rule sampling.

Why only lead and copper, and not arsenic, nitrate, or others?

EPA's bulk SDWIS download is the only nationwide per-system sample data they publish, and it only includes the Lead and Copper Rule table. Values for other regulated contaminants (TTHMs, nitrate, arsenic, etc.) appear on this page only when they trigger a violation. For the full per-system contaminant suite, see the utility's annual Consumer Confidence Report (link further down the page).

Fluoride

Per CDC My Water's Fluoride

OAK RIDGE SANITARY DISTRICT adds fluoride to its drinking water.

CDC classifies a system as fluoridated when it adjusts fluoride to the recommended level, or when it buys water from a system that does. The U.S. Public Health Service recommends 0.7 mg/L for community water fluoridation.

Compliance history

EPA-recorded violations against this system over the last 5 years.

How to read this section

Health-based violations are when a measured limit was exceeded; the measured concentration is shown alongside the EPA federal limit where SDWIS published it. Monitoring and reporting items are paperwork issues (missed sample dates, late filings) that do not themselves indicate unsafe water.

2 active health-based violations

EPA records 2 health-based violations that have not yet been resolved.

Where to see every contaminant this utility tested for

EPA's bulk SDWIS dataset gives MyTapWater.us per-system measured values for lead and copper, plus violation records for everything else. To see every regulated contaminant this utility tested for in the past year (TTHMs, HAA5, nitrate, arsenic, fluoride, chromium, etc.) with measured values, read the utility's Consumer Confidence Report (CCR).

Every community water system is required by EPA to publish a CCR annually, by July 1, listing every contaminant they sampled, the measured value, the federal limit, and any health-based exceedances. Most utilities post the report online; some mail it with your bill.
