Franklin Public Water System has 4,835 service connections serving 11,690 people; it has substantially implemented source water protection under Ohio's program. Office: 937-746-5001 (SDWIS).

EPA modeled the service boundary of Franklin Public Water System (random forest) rather than drawing it from the utility's map, so its edges are approximate.

Bills, 2023: a household using 5,000 gallons a month paid about $371 a year for water ($31 a month; $185 at 2,500 gallons, $593 at 8,000) and about $505 a year for sewer (Ohio EPA rate survey, inside-city rates).

Ohio EPA loans since 2016 for projects inside this ZIP: $28.7 million across 5 projects (drinking water $28.7M); largest: Water Treatment Plant Membrane Softening Upgrade (Warren County, 2020, $15.3M); Water Meter Replacement Project (Franklin, 2025, $4.8M); Franklin Community Park Tank and Booster Station (Franklin, 2024, $3.2M).

Wells: EPA lists 4 active wells. ODNR well logs locate 2 public-supply wells inside Franklin Public Water System's wellhead protection zone, 112 to 123 ft deep, in sand & gravel and cobbles. Zoom in to see them as dots.

Treatment & pressure

How it is treated

Franklin draws raw groundwater from five high-production wells in the Great Miami Buried Valley Aquifer (well screens 45-80 feet deep, water table less than 20 feet down) and treats it at a city-owned 5 MGD plant with iron and manganese filtration, plus fluoridation and chlorination. Finished water…

75% of these days are measurements from a gauge inside 45005 (Franklin Township and Franklin); the rest are estimated from the nearest gauges around it.

48,873 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.
