SIDNEY is one of 773 community water systems in Illinois in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, formerly serving 1,250 people from groundwater.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2020; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 15 entries between 1993 and 2019, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2019.

Of the 15, 9 are monitoring and reporting requirements — the category that accounts for about four in five of all violations in EPA's national dataset — rather than findings about the water itself. The record involves the Total Coliform Rules, the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
