Urbana City is owned by a local government, with 5,170 service connections serving 11,428 people; it has substantially implemented source water protection under Ohio's program. Office: 937-652-4335 (SDWIS).
EPA modeled the service boundary of Urbana City (random forest) rather than drawing it from the utility's map, so its edges are approximate.
Bills, 2023: a household using 5,000 gallons a month paid about $430 a year for water ($36 a month; $257 at 2,500 gallons, $689 at 8,000) and about $489 a year for sewer (Ohio EPA rate survey, inside-city rates).
Ohio EPA loans since 2016 for projects inside this ZIP: $3.8 million across 3 projects (stream and wetland restoration $2.2M, drinking water $1.6M); largest: Cedar Run Phase 2 Stinson and Koerner (Appalachia Ohio Alliance, 2022, $1.8M); Phase 2 Water Main Replacement Project (Urbana, 2020, $1.6M); Cedar Run Watershed Initiative (Appalachia Ohio Alliance, 2019, $404K).

About this area's water
Did you know
- Urbana's tap water is naturally very hard - 315 to 350 mg/L, about 20 grains - and the city neither softens nor fluoridates it; the CCR simply tells residents to set their home softeners no higher than 16 grains.
- Some of Urbana's 87 miles of water main are over a hundred years old. The CCR is blunt about what patching them accomplishes: the water pressure just 'will find the next weakest point in the line.'
- The city produced 666,474,100 gallons of drinking water in 2025 from just five wells.
- Ohio EPA has found nitrate, tetrachloroethene and trichloroethene in Urbana's raw and treated water at levels of concern since 1991 - a documented manmade fingerprint on the aquifer that the city answers with granular…
- All three of Urbana's 2024-25 Ohio EPA citations were paperwork under the new lead service line rules - a late inventory and uncertified notifications - not lead in the water; zero of 30 tap samples exceeded the lead…

- 1991Ohio EPA source-water study found nitrate, tetrachloroethene and trichloroethene in both raw and treated water at levels of concern - the documented start of a manmade influence on the aquifer that…
- 2013-2015New 4.5 MGD oxidation-ditch Water Reclamation Facility built (construction September 2013 to September 2015).

Treatment & pressure
How it is treated
Five operating wells in two well fields - SR 29 West and Old Troy Pike - drawing on the Mad River Buried Valley Aquifer and feeding two treatment plants that share the same high-yield aquifer, so finished-water chemistry stays stable year round. Disinfection is with sodium hypochlorite. A granular…

48,401 days of records, 1894-01-01 to 2026-10-29. Source: NOAA NCEI GHCN-Daily, 3,240 gauges in and around Ohio. A day is "gauged" when a gauge standing inside the boundary reported it, and the value is the mean of those gauges. Otherwise it is interpolated by inverse distance from every gauge reporting within 50 miles. Nothing is carried forward, back-filled or smoothed. Against NOAA nClimDiv county monthly precipitation over 136,848 complete county-months (checked 2026-10-31): correlation 0.9515, median absolute difference 0.217 in a month. Built 2026-10-31 from the Cracked Buckeye precipitation archive. Snow is the softer number — snowfall is measured by hand with a ruler, no agency publishes a gridded county snowfall series, and blowing snow defeats every observer.
