  • The plant's ozone system -- oxygen plus high-voltage electricity -- is demonstrated to visitors with a jar of raw water next to a jar of ozone-treated water.
  • Crews test water daily at 35 points throughout the distribution system.
  • The city markets raw or treated water to shale gas operations as a 'competitively priced, consistent, local water supply,' separate from its regular retail service; water tap fees start at $1,500.
  • Bridgeport abandoned its own PFAS-contaminated wells and now buys Martins Ferry water, so Martins Ferry's aquifer supplies two Ohio River towns; the two systems also keep an emergency interconnection, unused in 2025.

  • 2021A Times Leader profile reported the plant fully in compliance, with Ohio EPA testing then finding no PFAS in the eight wells.

Treatment & pressure

How it is treated

The eight wells sit in a shallow alluvial aquifer roughly 30 feet down, directly between the Ohio River and SR 7.

Sanitary

Wastewater is treated by the East Ohio Regional Wastewater Authority (EORWA), a separate entity from the city that treats flows collected from several communities including Martins Ferry; residents receive a separate bill from EORWA for treatment. The city operates the collection system. Sewer tap fee is $2,000. Plant capacity and…

Storm

Martins Ferry still operates combined sewer lines, which the city says cause sewer backups and breaks during heavy rainfall, and is working under an Ohio EPA mandate to separate the combined storm and wastewater collection system.

Estimated, not measured. No rain gauge has ever stood inside 43935 (Martins Ferry), so every figure here is worked out from the gauges around it - the nearest ones weighted most. Treat them as close estimates rather than readings.

52,025 days of records, 1878-02-01 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.
