Where does the tap water come from?
Where the tap water comes from and what is in it: the lake, river, reservoir or aquifer behind every tap, the plant that treats it, and what the compliance record and the lab results say about it.

Rural Lorain Co. Water A as a whole draws on: Mostly Lake Erie (bought from Avon Lake); some New London Reservoir and Ashland wells. This ZIP is served through Ashland City, listed by EPA as a secondary supplier.
Also connected to New London Village (Buck Creek, impounded in New London's upground reservoir), Ashland City (Jerome Fork Basin sand-and-gravel aquifer (wells)), used as a secondary or emergency supply.
Rural Lorain Co. Water A is owned by a local government, with 23,200 service connections serving 73,125 people. Office: 440-355-5121 (SDWIS).
Bills, 2023: a household using 5,000 gallons a month paid about $672 a year for water ($56 a month; $398 at 2,500 gallons, $934 at 8,000) (Ohio EPA rate survey, inside-city rates).

About this area's water
Did you know
- RLCWA doesn't treat a drop of its own water -- every gallon is purchased pre-treated from three separate utilities and blended before it reaches a customer's tap.
- The New London Reservoir covers 220 acres and holds 1.4 billion gallons when full, fed by Buck Creek, a branch of the Vermilion River.
- Ashland's 12 supply wells tap the Jerome Fork basin at depths ranging from just 70 feet down to 300 feet.
- In 2023 RLCWA delivered an average of 5,744,491 gallons of drinking water a day -- all of it bought from someone else.
History5
- 2014City of Ashland's radium sample (0.189 pCi/L) collected -- the oldest result still carried forward in RLCWA's 2023 CCR table.
- 2016The federal Revised Total Coliform Rule took effect on April 1, changing how RLCWA and its sellers monitor for coliform bacteria.
- 2018Last radium and alpha-emitter samples on record for the New London source: radium 1.04 pCi/L and alpha emitters 5.4 pCi/L, both under their MCLs.
- 2020New London and Ashland were sampled for six PFAS compounds under Ohio's statewide PFAS initiative; none were detected in finished water.
- 2023RLCWA failed to collect corrosion-control water quality parameter samples at the Ohio EPA-required frequency in July-December, triggering a public notice.
Treatment & pressure
How it is treated
RLCWA operates no treatment plant; it blends finished water from three sellers: Avon Lake Regional Water (Lake Erie), the Village of New London (New London Reservoir, fed by Buck Creek) and the City of Ashland (12 Jerome Fork wells). All three filter and disinfect.
Water quality & impurities8
| Contaminant | Level | Limit | Year |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total Trihalomethanes (TTHM) Range 19.2-79.8 ppb across the blended distribution system; no violation. | 59.825 ppb | 80 ppb (MCL) | 2023 |
| Haloacetic Acids (HAA5) Range 7-48.6 ppb; byproduct of disinfection. | 38 ppb | 60 ppb (MCL) | 2023 |
| Lead (90th percentile) Zero of 32 samples exceeded the action level. | <2.0 ppb | 15 ppb action level | 2023 |
| Copper (90th percentile) Zero of 32 samples exceeded the action level. | 0.0559 ppm | 1.3 ppm action level | 2023 |
| Turbidity (New London source) Range 0.05-0.36 NTU from soil runoff; 100% of samples met the standard, no violation. | 0.36 NTU | TT: 0.3 NTU in 95% of samples | 2023 |
| Radium (combined 226/228, New London) Well under the limit; most recent New London sample on record. | 1.04 pCi/L | 5 pCi/L (MCL) | 2018 |
| PFBA (unregulated, UCMR5) PFAS breakdown product, just over the 0.005 ppb minimum reporting level. | 0.0051 ppb | no MCL (monitoring only) | 2023 |
| Nitrate Highest of the three sources (Avon Lake); range 0.134-0.96 ppm, well below the limit. | 0.96 ppm | 10 ppm (MCL) | 2023 |
EPA compliance record
Lead at the tap: 90th-percentile result 0 ppb in 2025 (action level 15 ppb).
EPA record: no health-based violations since 2015.
3 violations of any kind logged since 2020: 3 for required testing that was missed or reported late.
EPA compliance record · Avon Lake City (treats the water)
Lead at the tap: 90th-percentile result 0 ppb in 2025 (action level 15 ppb).
EPA record: no health-based violations since 2015.
1 violation of any kind logged since 2020: 1 for a report, record or notice that was missing, late or incomplete (the yearly water quality report, a public notice, lead line records).
Supply stress
No source of its own -- RLCWA depends entirely on three sellers. Ohio EPA found no direct pollution source for Avon Lake's Lake Erie intake; New London's reservoir sees soil-runoff turbidity; and Ashland's Jerome Fork wellfield is rated 'high susceptibility' for thin clay cover and a shallow water table.
Sewers
Sanitary
RLCWA is a water-only authority distributing purchased water across rural Lorain and Huron county communities; its materials describe no sewer service.

Mostly estimated. Only 2% of these days come from a gauge standing inside 44235 (Homer Township and Homerville) - the rest are worked out from the nearest gauges around it, so read them as close estimates rather than readings.
48,787 days of records, 1893-01-01 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. Built 2026-11-01 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.
