The water cribs in Chicago are structures built to house and protect offshore water intakes used to supply the City of Chicago with drinking water from Lake Michigan. Water is collected and transported through tunnels located close to feet (61 m) beneath the lake, varying in shape from circular to oval. Our pumping stations distribute pressurized water throughout our city. Chicago doesn’t use water towers in the distribution system. A few of the suburbs do use towers so that pressure is supplied by gravity and kept uniform. We use several chemicals in the purification and treatment of water: Chlorine: to disinfect the water.

Constructed to provide a safe, potable water supply for the citizens of Chicago, Ellis Chesbrough's Chicago Water Supply System was the first major system to utilize offshore intake systems. The system includes the landmark Chicago Water Tower and the Chicago Avenue Pumping Station.
Water Supply The Bureau of Water Supply provides just under one billion gallons of water a day to Chicago and neighboring suburban communities. Raw water is enters the crib about 2-miles out in the lake and is sent to one of two purification plants where the water is treated and impurities removed.
In Chicago, about 80% of water service lines city-wide are made of lead, so a large portion of the population should consider taking steps to ensure their family's safety. Several investigative reports by large media outlets have been highly critical of Chicago’s lead testing program. One reason for the massive annexation was the high quality of water provision within Chicago.
It took decades for Chicago's water department to service the vastly increased territory within the confines of the city. The water department had the difficult task of integrating many small systems.

Water supply system. Written By: Water supply system, infrastructure for the collection, transmission, treatment, storage, and distribution of water for homes, commercial establishments, industry, and irrigation, as well as for such public needs as firefighting and street flushing.The borehole is reported to have a production yield of 5l/s and a total depth of m.
Hence, the total yield of the existing water supply source is l/s. Water shortage is the major problem with the existing system. Domestic supplies are supplemented from secondary sources from the river.A water supply system is analogous to the human circulatory system.
The heart pumps blood through the arteries, veins, and capillaries to supply oxygen to all part of the body. A water pump supplies water through primary, secondary, and distributor water mains to supply water .
