None of the water samples exceeded the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) action level for lead which is set at 15 micrograms per liter of water (µg/L). Likewise, none of the water samples exceeded the Illinois Department of Public Health's (IDPH) requirements for levels of lead in drinking water of 5 parts per billion (ppb), or 5 µg/L."
