$1 Million+ Federal Investment Secured for Regional Water Future

“Like roots finding water, we always wind up moving towards what sustains us.”

– Mark Nepo

The Grand Prairie Water Commission (GPWC) is comprised of six southwest suburbs of Chicago—Village of Channahon, City of Crest Hill, City of Joliet, Village of Minooka, Village of Romeoville, and Village of Shorewood.

 

Together, they are dedicated to providing you and your community sustainable and reliable water supply to meet water needs and support continued growth and development in the region.

​

​​Due to water quantity and water quality challenges, these six communities will purchase Lake Michigan water from the City of Chicago with a vision to improve the water supply for their communities with innovation, collaboration, and efficiency.
