Did you know
  • This district owns no treatment plant: 46,324 people on 16,845 connections drink entirely purchased water, per EPA's SDWIS record for the system.
  • RLCWA blends three unlike sources - Lake Erie via Avon Lake, a 1.4-billion-gallon reservoir at New London, and 12 Ashland wells 70 to 300 feet deep.
  • Its engineers call RLCWA one of the largest rural water systems ever built in the U.S.: about 150,000 people over 520 square miles in five counties.
  • The Avon Lake plant at the far end of this supply chain has been filtering Lake Erie since 1926, and began selling wholesale to RLCWA in 1975.
History5
  • 1926Avon Lake's Lake Erie filtration plant goes into operation; it later becomes the wholesale source at the head of this district's supply chain.
  • 1973Rural Lorain County Water Authority formed after a petition from 16 townships and 2 villages; it becomes this district's wholesale supplier.
  • April 1974Lorain County Court of Common Pleas enters final judgment completing RLCWA's formation.
  • 1975/1982/19…Avon Lake's utility board signs successive wholesale contracts with RLCWA, Sheffield Village and the Eastern Transmission Line consortia.
  • 2023RLCWA fails to sample corrosion-control indicators at the required frequency in July-December, a monitoring violation disclosed in its own CCR.
Treatment & pressure

How it is treated

Buys finished water; no plant of its own. Supplier RLCWA's CCR says all three of its sources - Avon Lake Regional Water (Lake Erie), the New London Reservoir and Ashland's Jerome Fork wells - treat by filtration and disinfection, with fluoride added.

Water pressure

Not published for this district. Supplier RLCWA runs 19 pressure zones, 18 storage tanks and 14 pumping stations across 1,200+ miles of main (GRW).

What it costs

Medina County Sanitary Eng. sets this district's retail rate (fee schedule eff. 1/1/2026, not retrievable). Supplier RLCWA charges $9.14/1,000 gal in 2026.

EPA compliance record

Lead at the tap: 90th-percentile result 1.3 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 a report, record or notice that was missing, late or incomplete (the yearly water quality report, a public notice, lead line records).

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

Wholesale-only: no source of its own, so it inherits any RLCWA or Avon Lake supply problem. Chlorinated Lake Erie water piped far through rural mains keeps TTHM near 60 ppb against an 80 ppb MCL. RLCWA also missed required corrosion-control sampling in July-December 2023.

Sewers

Sanitary

Medina County Sanitary Engineering Department runs both this water district and county sanitary sewers (three divisions, roughly 50,000 customers), so it is not a water-only utility.

Storm

We found no county stormwater utility fee.

Estimated, not measured. No rain gauge has ever stood inside 44280 (Liverpool Township and Valley City), 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.

48,542 days of records, 1893-01-01 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.
