Mount Orab Village is owned by a local government, with 2,541 service connections serving 6,607 people; it has substantially implemented source water protection under Ohio's program. Office: 937-444-2657 (SDWIS).

EPA modeled the service boundary of Mount Orab Village (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 $492 a year for water ($41 a month; $282 at 2,500 gallons, $726 at 8,000) and about $677 a year for sewer (Ohio EPA rate survey, inside-city rates).

Ohio EPA loans since 2016 for projects inside this ZIP: $1.6 million across 11 projects, $1.5 million of it forgiven (nonpoint runoff $1.5M, drinking water $20K); largest: WPCLF HSTS Funding 2018 (Brown County Health Department, 2018, $168K); WPCLF HSTS Funding 2016 (Brown County Health Department, 2016, $168K); WPCLF HSTS Funding 2026 (Brown County Health Department, 2026, $150K).

Did you know
  • Mt. Orab's water source is monitored by Ohio EPA right at the village's own intake: the Division of Surface Water station is literally named 'STERLING RUN @ MT ORAB WATER INTAKE', at river mile 6.47 in Brown County.
  • The village does not drink Sterling Run continuously — it watches the creek's quality and simply stops pumping when farm chemicals rise, filling two upground reservoirs when the water is good.
  • Half the year the tap water is not local: in 2025 Mt. Orab bought 31.145 million gallons from Brown County Rural Water Association across 182 days, and some numbers in its own quality table are that association's…
  • A three-member Board of Public Affairs runs the water works, meeting at 9:00 a.m. on the first Monday of each month, and it oversees more than 150 miles of water line and 75 miles of sewer line.
  • The village was platted in 1850 by Daniel Keether.

History5
  • 1850Mount Orab laid out by Daniel Keether on September 3.
  • 2005A granular activated carbon stage was added to the village water treatment plant in the fall of 2005, treating filtered water for removal of organic contaminants.
  • 2024One of 20 lead samples came back at 18.9 ppb, above the 15 ppb action level, though the 90th-percentile value of 1.9 ppb kept the system in compliance.
  • 2025Reporting violation: the village failed to demonstrate to the state that it had delivered the required annual lead service line inventory notifications to affected consumers by July 1, 2025. Public…
  • 2025Mt. Orab bought 31.145 million gallons of water from Brown County Rural Water Association across 182 days of the year to supplement its own surface supply.

Treatment & pressure

How it is treated

The village operates a surface water treatment plant at 116 W. Main St. Raw water is drawn from Sterling Run into two upground raw water reservoirs, then purified by conventional means using coagulation, settling and filtration; since the fall of 2005 the filtered water passes through granular…

Mostly estimated. Only 1% of these days come from a gauge standing inside 45154 (Mount Orab) - the rest are worked out from the nearest gauges around it, so read them as close estimates rather than readings.

48,317 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.
