Did you know
  • Removing Fremont's 1913 Ballville Dam in 2018 cost about $12 million — roughly $15 million less than repairing it would have — and reopened 22 miles of the Sandusky River.
  • An angler snagged a lake sturgeon above the old dam site in spring 2019; ODNR biologists said it was likely the first one seen there in about 150 years.
  • More than 11,000 freshwater mussels of 14 native species, including purple wartyback and round pigtoe, were hand-relocated upstream in the summer of 2017 before the dam came down.
  • Fremont's water never touches a well: it is pumped out of the Sandusky River into a reservoir, then runs downhill by gravity to the treatment plant on Tiffin Street.
  • Every Fremont water and sewer connection carries a separate line-item surcharge for EPA-mandated improvements on top of the normal rate — $7.77 a month on the water side and $6.95 on the sewer side for a typical in-city home.

History6
  • 1913Ballville Dam built on the Sandusky River by the Ohio Power Company, roughly 420 feet wide and 35 feet tall.
  • 1959The City of Fremont purchases Ballville Dam and begins using its impoundment as a drinking water supply.
  • 2013Fremont opens a new off-stream water supply reservoir, taking over the storage role the dam pool had served.
  • 2017Ahead of the dam's removal, more than 11,000 freshwater mussels representing 14 native species, including purple wartyback and round pigtoe, are relocated upstream.
  • 2018Ballville Dam demolished over roughly 20 working days, following a 2017 pilot notch cut. Removal cost about $12 million against an estimated $27 million to repair and upgrade the aging dam, and reopened 22 river miles of the Sandusky River to natural flow and fish passage.
  • 2019An angler lands a lake sturgeon upstream of the old dam site — the first known sturgeon there in roughly 150 years.

Recent and current work

  • Ballville Dam removal and Sandusky River restoration · $12 million · 2018 · completed
    Removal cost about $12 million against an estimated $27 million to repair the 1913 dam. Demolition took roughly 20 working days after a 2017 pilot notch cut, and reopened 22 river miles.
  • Fremont Reservoir · 2013 · completed
    New off-stream water supply reservoir, fed by pumping from the Sandusky River and draining by gravity to the treatment plant; it replaced the dam impoundment's storage role and made removing the dam possible.

Planned or needed

  • EPA-mandated improvements program (water and sewer) · 2026 · planned
    Effective January 1, 2026 every water connection pays a separate EPA-mandated-improvements fee ($7.77/month in city, $9.33 out of city, on a 5/8-inch meter, scaling to $2,913.82 for a 12-inch meter) and every sewer connection pays another ($6.95/month in city, $9.04 out of city, scaling to $1,736.44).

Supply stress

High. Fremont's own water quality report states that its surface water source is considered to have HIGH susceptibility to contamination, naming agricultural runoff, oil and gas wells, inadequate septic systems, leaking underground storage tanks, and road and rail crossings as potential contaminant sources.

Sewer rates for bills rendered on or after January 1, 2026 are tiered monthly per 100 cubic feet: in city, $6.10 on the first 200 cu ft, $5.85 on the next 4,000, $5.57 on the next 4,000, $5.34 on the next 4,000 and $4.94 above 12,200 cu ft; outside-city rates run from $7.93 down to $6.42.

48,670 days of records, 1893-04-01 to 2026-10-30. 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 2026-11-01): correlation 0.9515, median absolute difference 0.217 in a month.

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.
