The City of Highland Park's Water Treatment Facility provides potable water for all water customers. The Water Treatment Plant, located at the east end of Park Avenue on Lake Michigan, is currently rated at 21 million gallons per day (MGD).

The City of Highland Park contractually provides water to the municipalities of Deerfield, Lincolnshire, and Bannockburn, while also providing such service to the Glenbrook Sanitary District and Fort Sheridan.

The City has the capability to provide water on an emergency basis to Northbrook, Highwood, Lake Forest, and Glencoe.

Conversely, the City is able to receive water from Lake Forest and Northbrook in the event of an emergency.

In 2002, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency conducted a federally mandated Source Water Assessment of Highland Park. Please click here to view the complete assessment.
