The Shaffer TwinsBy James MiddletonThe Shaffer Twins, Addie and Edith, posed on a sunny

spring day under their matching umbrellas at the Shaffer Family homestead that, in the 1880s, was located on Poplar Grove Road. The inherent similarities of the two young girls was then and remains today, undeniable. Yet, that is the nature of twins, their physical similarities are indelible but their psychological differences can be as different as chocolate and vanilla ice cream.

The photographer captured the images of the two girls at that instant when they were embarking on one of the most beautiful ages of womanhood, when they are emerging as a woman. The young women emerge from the chrysalises of their youth to unfurl their wings as a mature woman in such a breathtaking way.

There are, of course, other ages when women are at their loveliest. Another such time is when a woman holds a newly born infant. Another priceless image of women is witnessed when she has lived beyond the youth of her children and she and her spouse embark on that new chapter of their lives when they are once again, a nation of two. Finally, women are loveliest when they smile in their later years and bearing the lines of recognition and they understand so much about their life and the lives of others so as to understand and marvel at the secrets of the universe. Those secrets explain the mythical smiles that older women adopt when someone that is decades younger has referred to some human act and claimed to have that infinite understanding of why the act occurred. The smile is knowing and subtle.

The Shaffer Twins shared the smile of the innocent. They seem to have a sense of what might lay ahead, a boyfriend, one day later a spouse and then children. But, as they posed under their umbrellas they had so much less on their mind than their future. The two girls seem to portray a feeling that they were, somehow, prepared and ready for what would lay ahead.

The 1880s was an era that moved at a slower pace than is the case today. Data flowing at bytes per second that would exhaust the fastest race car is often too slow for business and modern culture. In the 1880s and in the world

the Shaffer girls populated, they were willing to move with patience. That is not to say that those that lived then were lazy or procrastinators but it is to say that many that lived in Belvidere in the 1880s were willing to take time to experience and to relish in the world.

The Shaffer Twins chose to don different dresses on the spring day when they posed under their umbrellas. The use of the umbrella was an eye-catching idea as the shape of the canopy of the umbrella focused the eye of the viewer on their lovely faces. It is impossible to look at the photograph and not focus on their faces, the lighter complexion contrasted with the dark background that was the inside of the umbrella.

It is obvious by viewing the photograph to conclude that the photographer had an eye for detail, depth of field and composition. The photographic print was shaped within a heart and the trees, the background, the umbrellas and the girls were positioned in such a manner and in such a pose as to highlight the beauty that these two almost identical young girls portrayed to the world.

One wore a striped dress and the other chose a solid colored dress. Because color photography was 50 years into the future, we cannot discern the colors of the dresses.

Photography today does not involve carrying five-foot tall view cameras, tripods or glass plates that were the negative images. Photography today is as simple as turning a cellular telephone backwards from how the device would be held when making a phone call, checking the clarity of the image and pressing the screen to create what could become a permanent image of an instant in time. That is what photography is, the ability to capture a permanent image of a precise moment in time.

The Shaffer Twins did move forward from that day with the photographer to advance their lives that included spouses and children and grandchildren. For the most part, they lived relatively common lives of those born in the later decades of the 19th Century.

So many millions of girls and boys, men and women and even twins live rather common lives that involve finding a spouse, procreating a family, living within a sense of an extended family and toiling in an occupation that provides the practitioner a degree of satisfaction, a means to create a living and, for some, the ability to be engaged in activities

that are exhilarating and rewarding while being beneficial to others.

We are uncertain if the Shaffer Twins, Addie and Edith, enjoyed such a life. But, we pray that they did. Their appearances benefitted one lucky photographer who captured them posing under their umbrellas. But, there were others in the lives of the twins who were lucky to have relished their beauty that was captured in an instant of time known as a lifetime.

The Journal wants to thank the Boone County Historical Society for allowing use of this marvelous photograph, thank you.

Osoria to Serve5-Years in Theft

By James MiddletonLast week a special prosecutor from the Illinois state’s

attorney’s appellate division announced the sentencing verdict in the case of The State of Illinois v. Donna Osoria. Ms. Osoria (58) heard her sentence pronounced after having been found guilty of committing the crime of theft of $10,000 or more from the Boone County circuit clerk’s office. The thefts occurred from March 15, 2010 until June 22, 2012 during the term of the employment of Ms. Osoria in the circuit clerk’s office.

Ms. Osoria was sentenced to serve a term of five years in the Illinois Department of Corrections with the sentence being given by the honorable Judge Rob Tobin in the 17th Judicial District Court in Belvidere who heard the original case. She remains in custody in the Boone County Jail and soon the Illinois Department of Corrections will request that Ms. Osoria be transferred to a state penal institution. When she arrives at that destination she will be tested and processed into the Illinois corrections system. A subsequent determination will be made as to where she will serve her five-year term of incarceration resulting from the body of tests that will be performed.

After the arrest and initial county investigation, Ms. Osoria later admitted that she had taken bond money that was delivered by those representing criminal defendant’s. The theft of the bond money occurred without authority and the money was used by Ms. Osoria for her own purposes. It was further admitted by Ms. Osoria, during the entire process of these thefts, she would later transfer bond money from other cases to replace the earlier thefts that she had perpetrated. In effect a type of “Ponzi Scam” was created that required future thefts be made to cover for the earlier thefts.

A review of the thefts was initially performed by the Boone County circuit clerk’s office. However, a later forensic audit was performed by Sikich. LLP. The result of that audit discovered that a total of $24,729 in funds had been stolen from the circuit clerk’s office by Ms. Osoria. Under an insurance policy that Boone County carries that is provided by CIRMA to protect against such incidents, $23,749 was reimbursed to the county that was subject to a $1,000 deductible under the terms of the insurance contract.

Special Prosecutor Chuck Colburn tried the case on behalf of the Boone County state’s attorney’s office. Mr. Colburn was appointed after a request was received from the Boone County state’s attorney Michelle Courier to avoid any question of a potential conflict of interest in the prosecution of the case.

To Conduct Business“More Effectively”By James MiddletonThree weeks ago in the Belvidere City Council committee of the whole meeting, city aldermen almost approved a change in the “purchasing guidelines and bidding procedures” for the city. On Monday, after some Parliamentary Procedures were initiated to get the vote correct, the city did alter that procedure but not in a manner that was originally imagined.It should be noted for the record that matters considered

2 April 17, 2015 The Boone County Journal 815-544-4430 In Our 19th Year www.boonecountyjournal.com

Bidding from page...1in committee meetings are not designed to be advanced from those meetings with a final approval. Movement of measures from committee meetings either go forward to a future City Council meeting for final action or they are defeated in committee without moving forward and disappear.The effort to affect change in the purchasing and bidding procedures of the city came about from the public works department. That department is where numerous purchasing and bidding needs arise and the effort to alter the city code was designed to bring the city procedure nearer to similar procedure in place at the state level. Some of the difference between state and city policy are found in the threshold that must be passed to require a bid to be obtained. In the state code, that bidding threshold arises at $20,000 in estimated value. At the city level, the Belvidere code specifies that a $10,000 threshold would require a bid to be obtained. Any material purchase for the state that is below $20,000 would not require a bidding procedure. In Belvidere, a purchase of material that is valued at or below $10,000 would not require bids to be obtained.It must also be noted that the process to prepare documents and to be submitted for consideration by “responsible” bidders costs money. Often, a wide range of public works needs that must go through a bidding process must have the bidding documents prepared by professional services that charge a fee. For example, bidding documents for modern telephone and computer systems, software and highly technical products often require outside services to prepare those documents so that the correct products are bid for and obtained to manage the need of the municipality. In the former committee meeting, city attorney Michael Drella led the discussion of the matter. He indicated that it is not unusual for the city aldermen to need to waive the bidding process in order to advance a purchase need. In this Monday meeting, there was a need for a motion to waive the bidding process regarding the purchase of LED light bulbs that would be bought at a total cost of slightly over $19,000 to be used in the ornamental lighting fixtures in downtown Belvidere.Mr. Drella had told the aldermen that waiving the bidding procedure is not a method that is designed to be the manner by which the city does business. In the committee meeting, Mr. Drella said, “You should understand that to waive the bidding process is not supposed to be the common thing to do but an extraordinary step to take.”By the end of the committee debate, Alderman Daniel Snow (Ward 2) added an amendment to the motion for advancement. Mr. Snow’s amendment proposed that the bidding threshold in existence in the city be retained and not increased to the state threshold. In voice votes, the amendment and the primary motion were approved unanimously. In the Monday meeting this week, the question to alter the purchasing and bidding procedure came for a second reading that meant the question was up for final consideration. When the debate opened, Mr. Snow clarified, “We are leaving the dollar amount at $10,000?” Belvidere Mayor Michael Chamberlain answered yes, the dollar threshold would remain at $10,000.With that there was no further discussion before the vote that had seven aldermen in favor of passing the measure with one, Alderman Ronald Brooks (Ward 4), opposing the move. After the vote, Mr. Chamberlain recognized Mr. Brooks, who said, “I liked the original suggestion from the Council.”The Mayor answered, “Your opinion is not shared by your colleagues. I was absent from the committee meeting when this matter came up. We merely wanted to bring our policy in line with the state. Waiving the bidding process comes up often and we have another tonight when we must alter the bidding process. We wanted to conduct business more effectively.”Then, Alderman George Crawford (Ward 4) was granted the floor to say, “I want, your honor, to change my vote to Nay. I agree with Alderman Brooks and I want to change my vote to Nay.” Mr. Chamberlain consulted with the city clerk, Shauna Arco to confer if the addition of a second May vote would alter the final vote outcome. The second Nay vote did not change the outcome and the Mayor announced, “The City Council does approve the measure.”

The Truth Is Not Always The TruthWe just finished a common and yet, a most unusual exercise last week that is repeated every year on the

same day, without fail, unless the person that fails to perform is prepared to pay a price. The exercise requires many hours spent poring over papers and filling out forms followed by a trek to the post office before the stroke of Midnight to mail a report to the federal and the state government that some claim is the result of a game of “Liar’s Poker.” The effort here for many is to produce a report that resembles the truth and yet, does not so deny the truth that a penalty is incurred. The balance needed to be successful is precise and narrowly construed. Of course, the effort must also resemble the truth in another realm so as not to incur another penalty imposed by the government. The game is the annual filing of an income tax return and for many, the document that is filed is the nearest many are willing to step to presenting the lie of their lives.

That is not to say that everyone lies when preparing their income tax return but then, the final question that must be answered by everyone making the report is, “Just what is the truth?” There are multiple shadings of the truth that can be employed by anyone to obtain a result that meets their needs.

The law is sometimes written in undefined terms, often employing vagaries that are clauses within the law that give lawyers a reason to draw a breath. By a recent count found in the Washington Examiner, April 15, 2015, under the byline of Jason Russell, more than 74,600 pages exists in the United States tax code. Further analysis by Mr. Russell reports that the tax code is 187 times larger than the code was a century ago.

One could argue that because the United States tax code is a law, there is wide latitude for interpretation of that law. After all, the more than 74,000 pages offer ample range for “interpretation. But, is interpreting the law, if done so correctly, a lie unto itself?

As is the case in so many questions of the law and attendant potential violations of the law, the intent is key to determine if the law was consciously broken or if the lie was followed. For example, if mortgage interest on a first and a second mortgage loan totals $5,660, is it legal to round the total mortgage interest paid to $5,700? Is it within the law to round that number to $6,000 or is it legal to round that mortgage interest calculation to $10,000? At which point has the lie been told?

To a great extent, everyone must answer these questions and often the correct answer is to calculate just what will pass the eye of an Internal Revenue Service examiner and/or what will catch their eye. The calculation and the balance is delicate.

Yet, if one consciously lies on their tax return they must acknowledge, to themselves that they are perpetrating a lie and a deception. That is not necessarily something that will cause one to lose the hair but to acknowledge to oneself that they have and will lie that must alter how one sees themselves when gazing at their reflection in a mirror. The primary question that taxpayers must also answer to identify the chances of them being caught in the lie by an income tax examiner.

Often, the primary question in the mind of a perpetrator of a crime, regardless of the crime is to answer, “What are the chances that I will be caught?” Many perpetrators will answer that question before the crime is committed and many of those that commit crime answer to themselves, “There’s no chance that I’ll be caught.”

Certainly if one is a gang member in Chicago and commits a drive-by shooting, the likelihood that they will be caught is slim if current crime statistics in Chicago can be trusted. There is, of course, significant difference between committing a drive-by shooting and lying on an income tax return but often the calculation or the motivation to commit either act is similar. The question resounds, “But, will I get caught?” There is seldom any consideration by the perpetrator of either crime regarding the ethics or the morality of the act or how the question could be settled if they were caught.

Often though, with an income tax report, the question is one of interpretation and not one of purposeful premeditation by the actor to deceive the government. The question is one of shading. The caution for the perpetrator is to understand that the full force and power of the federal government can be daunting when placed in motion. If anyone is unaware of that power they should as for Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. or former Governor Rod Blagojevich.

It is likely that everyone will shade the truth and everyone will also try to soften the lie. Shakespeare wrote the dialogue that answers the conundrum of how to tell the truth, or a version thereof, when filing 0nes’ income tax return. In his play Henry IV, in Part I, he wrote, “The better part of valor is discretion; in the which better part, I have saved my life.”

Leaving the RideAfter 36-YearsBy James Middleton

Some elements of a life and a career are repetitive. The days come and go along with the months and before one knows it, years have lapsed as one has moved through a career and a life. But, one can only know the value of that career by looking back from where one stands near the end and the result cannot be known at the start of a career by looking forward. So might conclude the existential philosopher, Soren Kierkegaard.

The assistant superintendent at Belvidere School District #100 for staff development and technology, Cheryl Giesecke is doing that review of 36 years of teaching as she anticipates her retirement. She began her career in education in District #100 and she is ending her career right where she started, but not exactly how she started. She noted recently how unusual her career had been, almost as if she was from a different age. More and more people today and perhaps more and more people in the future will have shorter periods of tenure in their jobs.

For many workers, five years or perhaps 10 years is recognized as an unusually long time to remain at one job or working for one employer. But, Ms. Giesecke noted that remaining, as she had, with one employer provided a high degree of satisfaction for having done the job and made a difference in the city and area where she grew up.

She graduated from Belvidere High School, earned a Bachelor of Science degree in teaching and mathematics from Illinois State University. Later, she earned a Master’s Degree in administration and a Certificate of Advanced Study from Illinois State. “I have been in Belvidere through all of my career,” she said, “I just never had cause to leave.” She also repeated a comment heard from many career teachers as they were matriculating into their retirement, “The students here kept me young.”

She came to District #100 to teach algebra and geometry but during her career, Ms. Giesecke became involved in all areas of curricula as a teacher and an administrator. To make that step from teacher to administrator, continuing education was a step she took voluntarily. She taught mathematics in Belvidere before she began to pursue her Master’s Degree in mathematics.

Soon after earning her advanced degree she said, “I decided I would switch to administration and I took a job as an assistant principal and I chose to fill the job.” Of course, changing from the classroom to the administration area of public school involves more than changing ones office. “I made the switch but I came to miss the daily activity with the students,” Ms. Giesecke added. She explained, the benefit being in the classroom with students was, “They will keep you focused.”

Ms. Giesecke served as the assistant principal at Belvidere High School from 1985 until 2007, a remarkably long time. Through those years she was on the forefront of administration

at BHS as well as being involved in the recruiting, the hiring and the replacement of teaching staff.

Today, the individual building administrators are involved in the recruiting and hiring of most of the teaching staff. However, she added, “In the case of a ‘high profile’ employee, such as a football coach, upper administration often become involved.”

Her work as an administrator in District #100 has also placed Ms. Giesecke in the forefront of making curricula decision in her specialty, mathematics. But, she also continues to be involved in the upper levels of other curricula decisions. She has a team of 10 instructional coaches that are engaged in curricula advisement and decisions. The upper administration at District #100 encourages and emphasizes a team concept in almost all that they do.

As she moves to enter a new chapter in her life Ms. Giesecke said, “When I leave for the last time I will miss being a part of a collaborative system that is doing good and essential work.” She added one of the benefits that teachers and administrators in public schools offer their students is to provide a means and a method for the students to navigate in the world.

Ms. Giesecke suggested that she is still deeply involved in her job and she attends every Board of Education meetings to be available to answer questions from Board members. She has no immediate plans for her future and added, “I think that I will take some time to decompress. I just need to give myself some time to relax a bit.” Of course, being involved in any activity at the highest level carries with the job a degree of stress and Ms. Giesecke indicated that she would welcome that change.

However, teaching is what she has done for her entire career and continuing to teach in a very different environment is something she has done for the last four years. This activity in what many might consider an alien environment has been an energizing experience for her. As she has done for four years, this summer Ms. Giesecke will return to the super maximum security penitentiary at Angola, Louisiana where she will teach some of the inmates.

She goes there to work with the inmates in a Bible survey course and to help them learn to read more effectively. She also might provide a little help with the inmates to improve their ability to handle mathematics. “I work with some men that have been inside for 35 years, many of them have been sentenced to serve the rest of their life there. These are men that have done some bad things,” but she said that she is invigorated to have the opportunity to help them learn. Some of them are barely literate but she continues to come back because of those that express a desire to learn and improve their lives.

She stays in Angola for usually one week and she will work with four groups of 25-men in each group. Ms. Giesecke said that so few can imagine the joy that she feels when she realizes that some of those she is working with comes to understand and appreciate what they are learning. To witness that moment of realization makes the trip and the experience worth the effort.

Ms. Giesecke will finish her 36-year career in the Belvidere School District #100 when school concludes in May. She will, as she said, decompress when the work is finished. However, we are not yet finished with her. Next week, we will speak with her to find her views on public education in Belvidere and how the educational system can be improved to better educate the young people. Just as Ms. Giesecke was open and willing to speak of her experiences so will she explain her views on how education in Belvidere can be improved. The second part of this look will appear in next weeks’ issue of The Journal.

Fulton Dutch DaysBy Danielle Wilson

The City of Fulton is a quaint community, rich in heritage and charm. It is located along the banks of the Mississippi River. The first permanent Dutch settler arrived at what would become Fulton in 1835. The Dutch came in small numbers at first and in 1872 there were only 59 families. By 1881, the town had grown to 198 families. Nearly all of these immigrants were members of the Dutch Reformed Church. It has never been explained why so many Holland immigrants were attracted to this small Midwestern area.

In 1974 the Community Christian School Auxiliary organized the first authentic Dutch Dinner. From this Dinner transpired the annual celebration to keep their heritage and traditions alive. Since 1974 the festival has grown and evolved, encouraging any and all to come and enjoy what the festival has to offer. The event comes on the first weekend in May and the residents of Fulton come together to celebrate their Dutch heritage. Dutch Days now spans over two full days of celebration.

For those who want to learn more about the culture there are films and slides on Holland, Dutch Folk Art, and a style show of traditional Dutch clothes. For those that are food connoisseurs or just like to eat, you can attend the traditional Dutch dinner on Friday evening or try a fresh pastry on Saturday morning. After your morning pastry and touring the festival, enjoy one of the

A Dutch tradition from times past stemming from as eairly as the 15th Century. Europe had a dirty reputation back then when few people bathed or bothered to clean their homes. The Dutch however made cleanliness a national ob-session. Now today at Dutch Festivals all over the world, the

traditional street cleaning represents their heritage.

many food vendors that will set up with authentic Dutch food. These vendors travel from over the region to participate at the festival. You can also spend quality-time looking through the more than 100 Arts & Crafts vendors.

Dutch Days is a festival where you just can’t miss the entertainment. Klompen Dancers appear in the streets to show you how to folk dance in their traditional wooden shoes. If one is inclined, they can even pick up a pair of custom made wooden shoes. The excitement begins in the afternoon when The Burgomaster, also known as the Mayor for non-Dutch speakers, and the Town Crier inspect the streets to see if they are ready and clean enough for the parade to commence. The street sweepers come through and water and brooms will fly down the street to prepare for the parade.

During the parade you will see authentic Dutch costumers, bands, floats and many other entertaining entities. Don’t leave in a hurry, for the first time, this year there will be an outdoor band following the parade and extended hours for the food, arts & crafts vendors. The Dutch Days Festival will extend from May 1st until May 2nd with the Dutch Heritage Parade running Saturday at 3 p.m.

The all day events held Friday and Saturday include: arts and crafts vendors; food and concession stands; de Immigrant Windmill Tours; Dutch dancing and costumes; antique tractor displays on Eighth Street and 14th Avenue; heritage canyon with early American crafters that will be at 515 North Fourth Street;

Dutch treasures display, Hindeloopen painting demonstration and sales, and the stippling display that will be at the Masonic Lodge, 1014 Fourth Street. Events will also be held at Heritage Canyon on May 1st and May 2nd, are the Early American Crafters who portray pioneer living. They will perform from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. The cost is $2 for adults and $1 for children.

A free shuttle service to Heritage Canyon is available on Saturday, May 2, from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. The shuttle runs continuously from Fulton City Hall to Heritage Canyon. Dutch Days is a wonderful educational experience for children and adults alike and very inexpensive. Grab your family and go learn the Dutch way in Fulton next weekend!

Village of Capron - Facility Number IL 0070100Consumer Confidence ReportAnnual Drinking Water Quality Report for the period of January 1 to December 31, 2014This year, as in years past, your tap water met all USEPA and IEPA drinking water health standards. This report is intended to provide you with important information about your drinking water and the efforts made by the Village of Capron Water Department to provide safe drinking water. For more information regarding this report please contact:Curtis McNames of the Village of Capron Water Department @ 815 – 222 – 2758.

This report will not be mailed to each home, but is available by request from Village Hall 250 W. Main Street (815-569-2351).

Source of Drinking Water:The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally-occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pickup substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity.⇒ Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife.⇒ Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally-occurring or result from urban storm water runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming.⇒ Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban storm water runoff, and residential uses.⇒ Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are a by-product of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also, come from gas stations, urban storm runoff, and septic systems.⇒ Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally-occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.

Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the USEPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791.

In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, EPA prescribes regulations which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. FDA regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health.

Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers USEPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the USEPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791).

We want our valued customers to be informed about their water quality. If you would like to learn more, please feel welcome to attend any of our regularly scheduled meetings. The source water assessment for our supply has been completed by the Illinois EPA. If you would like a copy of this information, please stop by Village Hall or call our water operator at 815-222-2758. To view a summary version of the completed Source Water Assessments, including: Importance of Source Water; Susceptibility to Contamination Determination; and documentation/recommendation of Source Water Protection Efforts, you may access the Illinois EPA website at http://www.epa.state.il.us/cgi-bin/wp/swap-fact-sheets.pl.

Source Water Assessment:

The source of drinking water used by Capron IL is Ground Water Active Well #1 (11311) 115 S. 4TH Street 231 gpm line shaft well Active Well #2 (01110) 205 ½ E. North Street 593 gpm line shaft well.Based on information obtained in a Well Site Survey published in 1990 by the Illinois EPA, several potential sources are located within 1,000 feet of the wells. The Illinois EPA has determined that the Capron Community Water Supply’s source water is not susceptible to contamination. This determination is based on a number of criteria including; monitoring conducted at the wells; monitoring conducted at the entry point to the distribution system; and available hydro geologic data on the wells. Furthermore, in anticipation of the U.S. EPA’s proposed Ground Water Rule, the Illinois EPA has determined that the Capron Community Water Supply is not vulnerable to viral contamination. This determination is based upon the evaluation of the following criteria during the Vulnerability Waiver Process: the community’s wells are properly constructed with sound integrity and proper siting conditions; a hydraulic barrier exists which should prevent pathogen movement; all potential routes and sanitary defects have been mitigated such that the source water is adequately protected; monitoring data did not indicate a history of disease outbreak; and the sanitary survey of the water supply did not indicate a viral contamination threat. Because the community’s wells are constructed in a confined aquifer, which should prevent the movement of pathogens into the wells, well hydraulics were not considered to be a significant factor in the susceptibility determination. Hence, well hydraulics were not evaluated for this system ground water supply.

Water Quality Test Results:

The following tables contain scientific terms and measures, some that may require explanation.Definitions:Maximum Contaminant Level or MCL: The highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology.

Maximum Contaminant Level Goal or MCLG: The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no know or expected risk to health. MCLG’s allow for a margin of safety.

ppm: milligrams per liter or parts per million – or one ounce in 7,350 gallons of water.

ppb: micrograms per liter or parts per billion – or one ounce in 7,350,000 gallons of water.

Avg: Regulatory compliance with some MCL’s are based on running annual average of monthly samples.

na: Not applicable.

Maximum residual disinfectant level or MRDL: The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants.

Maximum residual disinfectant level goal or The level of a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected risk to health.

MRDLG: MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants.

2014 Regulated Contaminants Detected: "Lead and CopperAction Level Goal (ALG): The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. ALGs allow for a margin of safety.Action Level: The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow. If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. We are responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but we cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead."
