IL AMERICAN-STREATOR (EPA PWSID IL0995030) delivers surface water to 19,000 residents. This report reflects 29 individual PFAS result(s) from the source UCMR5 observations and the latest Lead & Copper Rule 90th-percentile result. Water hardness and disinfectant type are pending the utility's own annual report.
0health-based violations in the last 10 years
From EPA SDWIS. A clean violation history means no enforcement action was recorded; it does not cover contaminants without a limit.
No result is not a pass. Your utility's annual water quality report may list them, and a certified lab test covers your own tap.
A tap test can confirm levels at your home before you choose treatment.
PFBS 5.5 ng/L, below the 2000 ng/L EPA health advisory (+3 more PFAS detected)
Lithium 14.5 µg/L, above the 10.0 µg/L EPA health reference level
Screening tells you if something is worth a closer look; a lab result is the number you can act on.

Screening: quick check, not lab-grade
Silver Lake Research
Lead, bacteria, nitrate, copper, iron, chlorine, hardness and pH
What it can't tell you: Each test gives a yes/no or a rough range, not a lab number, and it cannot detect PFAS or arsenic.
Lab-certified results
ETR Laboratories
50+ substances, including lead, copper, arsenic, nitrate, hardness and coliform bacteria
What it can't tell you: It does not test PFAS, and not every result on the panel falls under the lab's accredited scope.

PurityMap does not give a safe/unsafe verdict; it shows what the public records measured. For Streator, PFAS were detected below their limits, and PFBA 7.1 ng/L and PFPeA 4.3 ng/L with no federal or state limit. IL AMERICAN-STREATOR (PWSID IL0995030) has a Purity Score of 100/100 (confidence: moderate), assessed at the water-system level and computed only from contaminants that were measured. Water can change in your own pipes, so a certified test is the only way to know what comes out of your tap.
IL AMERICAN-STREATOR (PWS ID IL0995030) is the public water system on record for Streator, Illinois, serving about 19,000 people. Confirm the utility on your water bill before acting on a specific finding.
Surface water (primary source of record in EPA SDWIS).
In EPA's UCMR 5 testing (2023-11-01 to 2024-08-06), PFBS was detected at 5.5 ng/L, below the 2,000 ng/L EPA health advisory and PFHxA was detected at 3.9 ng/L, below the 400,000 ng/L state limit. PFBA (7.1 ng/L) and PFPeA (4.3 ng/L) were also detected; they have no federal or state limit.
Lead is not in Streator's current published record. Lead usually enters from a building's own pipes and fixtures, so a certified home test is the way to know yours.
PurityMap's current record for Streator holds 31 findings: 1 above a reference, 2 detected within the reference, 2 detected with no limit and 26 not detected. Each finding links to its dated public record; a parameter that was never monitored is shown as pending, not as a pass.
