Lake Lucerne Club Co.

Who runs it

EPA's record says Lake Lucerne Club Co. has 284 service connections and serves 980 people.

EPA classes it as a community water system, one that serves the same residents all year.

EPA's record says it has substantially implemented source water protection under Ohio's program, dating the program from 2024. Its office telephone on EPA's record is 440-543-5750.

How the water is treated

EPA's treatment table registers these steps for Lake Lucerne Club Co.: corrosion control and chlorine disinfection.

The list is what each system registered with EPA for treatment plants EPA still shows as active, and it can lag a plant upgrade.

Violations

EPA's record shows no health-based violations for Lake Lucerne Club Co. since 2015.

EPA logs no violations of any kind for Lake Lucerne Club Co. since 2020.

Lead and copper at the tap

In the sampling period ending December 2025, the 90th-percentile lead result at Lake Lucerne Club Co. was 0 ppb, under both the current 15 ppb action level and the 10 ppb level that applies from 2027. A result of 0 means at least nine in ten of the homes sampled had no lead detected.

The highest result on file is 3 ppb, in the period ending December 2021.

EPA has 9 sampling periods on file for Lake Lucerne Club Co. since 2016, the first ending in 2017; no period was above 10 ppb.

Every water system has to inventory its service lines, the pipes from the main to each building. In the inventory Lake Lucerne Club Co. sent EPA, 282 lines are counted.

Systems sample taps in the homes most likely to have lead pipes or solder. The 90th-percentile result is the level nine in ten of the sampled homes were at or below. Lead comes mostly from service lines and house plumbing, not the source water, so a low result for the system does not clear an old house.

EPA's dashboard status for this inventory: reported all required service line types.

PFAS

Ohio EPA's own statewide sampling tested 5 plants of Lake Lucerne Club Co. (latest sample June 2020). Not one of the six PFAS tested (PFOA, PFOS, PFHxS, PFNA, GenX and PFBS) was detected.

Ohio EPA's current sampling status map lists 5 plants of Lake Lucerne Club Co. as sampled, most recently February 2026.

PFAS are the 'forever chemicals' from firefighting foam, plating shops and non-stick coatings. Results are for water leaving the plant, not your tap.

Disinfection byproducts

Chlorine that disinfects water also reacts with organic matter to form byproducts. Two groups have federal limits: total trihalomethanes (TTHM, 80 µg/L) and five haloacetic acids (HAA5, 60 µg/L), judged on running yearly averages at each sampling site.

For TTHM, the average of Lake Lucerne Club Co.'s samples in 2019, the last year it was sampled, was 4.4 µg/L. The worst yearly average was 8.9 µg/L and the highest single sample was 20.9 µg/L, from 19 samples taken from 2012 to 2019.

For HAA5, the average in the last year sampled was 4.6 µg/L. The worst yearly average was 7.5 µg/L and the highest single sample was 15 µg/L, from 19 samples.

A yearly average of 0 means nothing was detected in that year's samples. EPA's file stops at 2019; Ohio EPA's Drinking Water Watch has newer results.

Nitrate, arsenic and radioactivity

Nitrate: the highest of 40 samples was 3.4 mg/L (as nitrogen) in 2012; in 2019, the last year sampled, the highest was 2.91 mg/L. No sample was over the limit of 10 mg/L. Nitrate above 10 is unsafe for infants.

Arsenic: the highest of 10 samples was 2 µg/L (limit 10); detections averaged 2; none over the limit.

Measured in finished water: at the plant's entry points and in the distribution system; raw well and intake samples are left out. Non-detects count as zero.

Solvents and fuels

EPA's file holds results for all six solvent and fuel compounds it checked. Benzene, carbon tetrachloride, 1,2-dichloroethane, trichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, and vinyl chloride were not detected in 10 samples each.

"Not detected" means the lab's result was below what its method can measure, not that the compound is absent. Non-detects count as zero in the highest-result column.

Farm chemicals and metals

EPA's file holds results for all nine herbicides and metals it checked. Detected: barium in 7 of 10 samples, highest 530 µg/L (limit 2,000). Not detected: atrazine in 15 samples, alachlor in 15 samples, 2,4-D in 4 samples, chromium in 10 samples, cadmium in 10 samples, mercury in 10 samples, selenium in 10 samples, thallium in 10 samples.

Non-detects count as zero in the highest-result column.

Bacteria in the pipes

From 2012 to 2019, 1 of 281 routine total coliform samples taken in the distribution system at Lake Lucerne Club Co. tested positive (0.36%); in 2019, the last year on file, 0 of 12 did. E. coli was never found in the 231 samples tested for it.

A positive coliform test is a warning sign, not a violation by itself. E. coli is a sign that human or animal waste may have reached the water. Coliform counts are routine samples only; E. coli counts include repeat samples.

Fluoride

The Ohio Department of Health's report to the CDC (My Water's Fluoride) says Lake Lucerne Club Co. draws on more than one source, and the blend keeps fluoride at the recommended level.

EPA's treatment table lists no fluoridation step at Lake Lucerne Club Co.

Measured fluoride: 0.45 mg/L on average at the plant's entry points in 2017 (below the 0.7 mg/L target), with 2 of that year's samples below the 0.2 mg/L reporting limit and left out of the average; samples ran from 0.2 to 0.92 mg/L across 10 samples in 2012 to 2019.

The recommended level for preventing tooth decay is 0.7 mg/L; the federal limit is 4 mg/L. The treatment list is what each system registered with EPA and can lag a plant upgrade.

How well the service area is mapped

EPA estimated the service area of Lake Lucerne Club Co. with a computer model rather than drawing it from the utility's map, so its edges are approximate.
