Round Lake (IL) Water Quality

Round Lake is a large public water system in EPA region 5 that provides tap water for the 60073 zip codes. It has 4 facilities where the water supply was tested for 64 chemical contaminants that impact tap water quality and human health.

The maximum reported level of HAA5 (five regulated haloacetic acids) was 15.245 µg/L. The maximum reported level of Manganese was 0.527 µg/L. There were 2 contamintants found in the Round Lake water supply at levels that were above the minimum reporting level.
