This report outlines the quality of water we delivered during the previous year. Barrington successfully meets all USEPA water quality standards and has been granted permission to analyze lead and copper levels once every three years instead of biannually.
Included in this report is information about your water source, its composition, and how it compares to regulatory standards. You'll also find a Source Water Assessment Summary, which public water suppliers must include as required by the IEPA.
The Annual Water Quality Report covering January 1 through December 31, 2015 aims to provide transparent information about your tap water and the efforts made by Barrington's water system to ensure safe drinking water.

Barrington Municipal Water Company and CDC- Where does Barrington water come from?
Barrington supplies groundwater to Barrington, Illinois. - Does Barrington test its tap water?
Yes. Like every public water system, Barrington must test its water under the federal Safe Drinking Water Act and publish an annual water quality report (Consumer Confidence Report). Ask the utility for the latest report or look for it on its website. - How do I contact Barrington?
Call 847-304-3400 or visit 200 South Hough Street, Barrington, IL 60010, or use the contact options on the utility’s website. - Does Barrington water contain lead?
Water usually leaves the treatment plant without lead. Lead can enter tap water from older service lines, solder and brass fixtures inside homes, especially when water sits in the pipes. Run the tap before drinking if water has been sitting, and ask the utility about lead testing and service line records. - Is Barrington water hard?
Hardness depends on the source and changes over time. The annual water quality report lists hardness, or you can test it at home. If it is above about 7 grains per gallon, a water softener sized to your measured hardness will stop scale and spotting.
