During the 1991-1995, the State took credit for its effort to identify sources and manage (using the provisions under the Illinois Groundwater Protection Act) within the Phase I area. When 2 numbers are reported above for a step, the first number reflects the Phase II aspect and the second reflects the Phase I. For the 1997 report, the State revised its tracking to reflect more locally-driven efforts. Any decrease in the total number of PWSs over the reporting periods may be due to regionalization of systems or more accurate database tracking. * Data not available/or optional reporting N/A - Not applicable (Program not approved during reporting period) ------- |
