There was one company in a city associated with Vermilion County that received FDA citations as a result of one inspection conducted in the county throughout 2024, according to reports from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This is an increase over the number of companies cited in the previous year.

The citations in the county include:

• Your equipment and utensils were not designed and constructed to be adequately cleaned or maintained to protect against contamination.
• Your written process monitoring procedures were not appropriate to significantly minimize or prevent the hazard requiring a preventive control.
• Your written sanitation preventive control procedures were not appropriate to significantly minimize or prevent the hazard requiring a preventive control.

The company cited had to take regulatory and/or administrative actions.

The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplace and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly.

According to its website, the FDA is a government agency that is primarily responsible for monitoring the production and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety quality.
