Did you know
  • The district pumped 374,801,000 gallons out of the Ohio River Buried Valley Aquifer in 2025 — from just eight production wells, none deeper than 73 feet.
  • Backwash from the iron and manganese filters goes into a distinctive red tank, where the sludge settles out before the water moves on.
  • Thirteen separate monitoring wells sit alongside the eight production wells purely to watch the aquifer's water quality.
  • The groundwater feeding the wells seeps east to west, the same direction the Ohio River flows past them.
  • ACRWD's service-line inventory found no lead, no galvanized-requiring-replacement, and no unknown-material service lines anywhere in the system.

History5
  • 1969Adams County Regional Water District formed; its 2025 CCR masthead reads '57 years of service! 1969-2026'.
  • 1987The district's water treatment plant was built; Rick Adamson, who joined ACRWD in January 1987 as a laborer/operator, oversaw its construction.
  • 2003Ohio EPA completed a source water assessment of the district's wellfield, rating the aquifer highly susceptible to contamination. The study was revised in 2024.
  • 2024In November the district began installing roughly 130,000 feet of water line, improving existing mains and extending service to customers who had no access.
  • 2026General Manager Rick Adamson retired after a 39-year ACRWD career (GM since 2004); Johnny Hayslip became general manager and Nathan Crothers distribution supervisor.

Treatment & pressure

How it is treated

Groundwater only. Eight production wells drilled 65 to 73 feet into the sand-and-gravel Ohio River Buried Valley Aquifer, in a wellfield west of Wrightsville along the Ohio River, feed the district's treatment plant on Buckeye Station Road. Treatment removes iron and manganese by filtration —…

Supply stress

Not a quantity problem but a vulnerability one. Ohio EPA's assessment (2003, revised 2024) rates the aquifer supplying ACRWD as highly susceptible to contamination because there is no protective clay layer over it, the aquifer is shallow, and significant potential contaminant sources sit within the protection area. Groundwater seeps very…

Sewers

Sanitary

ACRWD is a water-only district and provides no sanitary sewer service; none of its published materials address wastewater. No countywide sanitary operator was identified for its rural service area (Cherry Fork, Bentonville, Aberdeen). The Village of Winchester runs a municipal sewer system that is being expanded — a new 700,000 GPD…

Estimated, not measured. No rain gauge has ever stood inside 45115 (Byrd Township and Decatur), 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.

48,860 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.
