How does Wedron Silica Sand Company compare with other water systems in LaSalle County?
By EPA's size categories, Wedron Silica Sand Company is a very small system (500 people or fewer). LaSalle County has 129 active public water systems.

Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Wedron Silica Sand Company is well below that figure.
What does “non-transient non-community water system” mean?
A non-transient non-community water system regularly serves at least 25 of the same people for more than six months a year, but not where they live. Schools, factories, office buildings and hospitals with their own supply are typical examples. Illinois has 396 active non-transient non-community water systems, 10% of the state's 3,872 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 2,808 Illinois systems (73%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Wedron Silica Sand Company?
EPA lists Wedron Silica Sand Company as privately owned. The IL state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 99 of the 129 active systems in LaSalle County (77%) are also privately owned.
Does Wedron Silica Sand Company have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in July 2025. The violations listed here began between January 2025 and July 2025. By type: 11 monitoring and reporting and 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminants or rules involved are Chromium, Mercury, Beryllium and Cyanide. EPA lists 10 as resolved and 2 as archived. Resolved means at least one resolving action is on record: the system returned to compliance, the rule no longer applies, or no further action was needed. Archived means the violation was not marked resolved but is more than five years past the end of the noncompliance period, so it no longer counts toward current compliance status.
