Groundwater · unverified

The Ohio Department of Health's fluoridation report (CDC My Water's Fluoride) lists Wright State University as buying its water from Fairborn Public Water System; EPA's inventory shows its own sources as primary with Fairborn Public Water System as an emergency connection. The two records may reflect a blend or a recent switch.

Wells: EPA lists 2 active wells. ODNR well logs locate 1 public-supply well inside Wright State University's wellhead protection zone, 178 ft deep, in shale & limestone. Zoom in to see them as dots.

Could not find a WSU-specific source document; kept SDWIS groundwater hypothesis (2 wells). WSU sits within the same regional Mad River/Great Miami Buried Valley Aquifer as neighboring Fairborn and WPAFB systems, so that is the likely aquifer, but this is not directly confirmed.
