Supply stress

The clearest documented stress signal for this system: coverage of an April 2025 council meeting reported that public-works staff flagged the village's groundwater wells as vulnerable to nearby quarrying and deep drilling, and said Bettsville needed 'a primary answer' within 30 days on a contingency plan and a secondary water source…

Sewers

Sanitary

The village bills water and sewer jointly (Ordinance 2025-2 applies the new surcharge to both), indicating Bettsville operates its own sanitary sewer utility; we found no published wastewater plant name, capacity, or receiving stream.

Estimated, not measured. No rain gauge has ever stood inside 44815 (Bettsville), 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.

48,766 days of records, 1893-04-01 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.
