Abstract
The Illinois Groundwater Protection Act (IGPA) (P.A. 85-0863, 1987) responds to the need to manage groundwater by emphasizing a prevention-oriented process. The IGPA is a comprehensive law that relies upon a state and local partnership. Although the IGPA is directed toward protection of groundwater as a natural and public resource, special provisions target drinking water wells. The IGPA responds to the need to protect groundwater and establishes a unified protection program by: setting a groundwater protection policy; enhancing cooperation; establishing water well protection zones; providing for surveys, mapping and assessments; establishing authority for recharge area protection; requiring groundwater quality standards; and requiring technology control regulations.
