Did you know
  • Painesville's water plant is not in Painesville: it sits at 9565 Headlands Road in Mentor, off Titus Beach between Headlands State Park and the Mentor Marsh.
  • In 2025 the system pumped 1.253 billion gallons through 157 miles of main, averaging 3.43 million gallons a day for about 35,000 people.
  • Since October 2023 Painesville has supplied all of the drinking water for the Fairport Harbor public water system.
  • The original 1913 intake was abandoned in 2010 after sand and zebra mussels clogged it, and divers capped its 1950s successor in January 2021.
History5
  • 1896Painesville's water treatment plant was established, drawing from Lake Erie.
  • 1913A 24-inch intake extending 1,200 feet into Lake Erie was built; it was abandoned in 2010 after sand and zebra mussel infestation.
  • 2008A Water Pollution Control Loan Fund upgrade improved aeration control, clarifiers, tertiary filtration, grit removal and odor control at the WPCP.
  • 2020A new 60-inch intake extending 4,000 feet into Lake Erie came online; divers capped the 1950s 36-inch intake in January 2021.
  • 2021A powdered activated carbon feed able to dose over 40 ppm at full 7.5 MGD capacity went online in July to remove algal toxins.
Treatment & pressure

How it is treated

Lake Erie water treated at the 7.5 MGD Headlands Road plant (3.43 MGD average in 2025): filtration, chlorine disinfection, fluoridation and TOC removal for byproduct control, plus a powdered activated carbon feed added in 2021 to strip algal toxins.

Water pressure

No psi published; four pressure zones span ground elevations of 583-1,150 feet, served by three towers, a standpipe, an above-ground tank and five pump stations.

What it costs

$4.43 per 1,000 gallons

2026 in-city rate $3.31 per 100 cubic feet (748 gal), unchanged from 2025; outside city $4.93. Plus a $14.00 monthly improvement fee on a 5/8-inch meter.

    Distribution renewal completed in 2025 along with structural steel repairs and painting of the Crile water tower.
Supply stress

Lake Erie is not scarcity-limited, but harmful algal blooms have reached the Headlands Beach area, driving the deeper 4,000-foot intake and the 2021 powdered carbon system; no microcystins were detected in 2025. Sand, zebra mussels and frazil ice fouled the earlier intakes.

Sewers

Sanitary

City-run Water Pollution Control Plant at 1170 N. State St. serves about 20,000 people in five stages - preliminary, primary, secondary, tertiary sand filtration and disinfection - discharging to the Grand River, and has taken trucked septage since 2004. No CSO or consent decree found.

Estimated, not measured. No rain gauge has ever stood inside 44045 (Grand River), 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.

56,914 days of records, 1871-01-01 to 2026-10-28. 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.
