Drinking water · reported to EPA

Water comes from Sugar Grove water system

The Sugar Grove water system supplies Sugar Grove: about 90% of residents live in its service area. About 10% of homes are outside any mapped community water system, most likely on private wells, which EPA doesn’t regulate. It draws ground water and serves 11,243 people in all.

No health-based violations reported to EPA in the five years to October 2026, like 83% of the 3,525 systems serving 10,001–50,000 people.

Lead, 90th percentile0.0 ppb
015 ppb action level20
