ZIP code 45349: North Hampton

Drinking-water compliance

A health-based violation is a contaminant above its limit or a treatment rule not followed; monitoring, reporting and public-notice violations are paperwork. Lead is the 90th-percentile result across sampled homes, not a reading at any one tap.

Byproducts and contaminants

TTHM

15.4 µg/L yearly mean in 2019, the last year in the file (limit 80); worst yearly mean 26.7, highest single sample 26.7; 8 samples from 2012 to 2019

HAA5

7.9 µg/L yearly mean in the last year sampled (limit 60); worst yearly mean 10.1, highest sample 10.1; 8 samples

Nitrate

highest of 8 samples was 0.44 mg/L as nitrogen (2018; limit 10); 0 in 2019, the last year sampled. Nitrate above 10 is unsafe for infants

Arsenic

highest of 2 samples was 3.5 µg/L (limit 10); detections averaged 3.4

Solvents and fuels

benzene, carbon tetrachloride, 1,2-dichloroethane, trichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, vinyl chloride not detected in 2 samples

Bacteria

1 of 99 routine tap samples (1.01%) tested positive for total coliform in 2012 to 2019, 0 of 12 in 2019; E. coli never found in the 8 tap samples tested for it. Coliform itself is a warning sign; E. coli means sewage or manure reached the water

Farm chemicals

atrazine, alachlor not detected in 2 samples

Metals

barium in 2 of 2 samples, highest 409 µg/L (limit 2,000); chromium, cadmium, mercury, selenium, thallium not detected in 2 samples

EPA's file stops at 2019; Ohio EPA's Drinking Water Watch has newer results. Byproducts are judged on running yearly averages at each sampling site, so one high sample is not a violation. Nitrate and arsenic are measured where water enters the pipes.

Source: EPA Six-Year Review 4 compliance monitoring data, 2012 to 2019 (TTHM, HAA5 and coliform from distribution-system samples of North Hampton Village; nitrate, arsenic, radionuclides, solvents, herbicides and metals from the entry points of the same system); non-detects counted as zero

PFAS

Ohio EPA 2020

1 plant tested (latest 2020-07): nothing detected for the six PFAS tested

Ohio EPA latest

1 plant sampled by Ohio EPA, most recently 2020-07 (Ohio EPA statewide sampling status map)

Firefighting foam: 2 fire departments or other holders in Clark County registered 425 gallons of PFAS-based AFFF foam with Ohio EPA, 330 gallons in opened containers; the state is collecting it for disposal so it is never sprayed again.

PFAS are the forever chemicals from firefighting foam, plating shops and non-stick coatings. One sample above 4 ng/L is not a violation; compliance is judged on running annual averages, and systems are adding carbon filters ahead of the 2029 deadline. Results are for water leaving the plant, not your tap.

Lead at the tap

Latest period

1.5 ppb in the sampling period ending 2025-12

Highest since 2016

6 ppb (2019-12); never above 10 ppb in 9 periods

Service lines

239 inventoried: 2 lead, 33 galvanized needing replacement, 204 unknown, 0 not lead (reported all required service line types)

Children: this ZIP is not on the Ohio Department of Health's high-risk list for childhood lead testing; children on Medicaid or in pre-1978 housing with peeling paint should still be tested.

Housing age: 61% of the homes here were built before 1960 and 52% before 1940, when lead service lines, lead solder and lead paint were common; 82% predate 1980 (Census ACS 2020 to 2024).

Systems sample taps in the homes most likely to have lead pipes or solder; the 90th-percentile figure means nine in ten sampled homes were at or below it. Lead comes from the service line and the house plumbing, not the source water, so a low system result does not clear an old house. The action level drops from 15 to 10 ppb in 2027, and every lead line must be replaced within ten years of that.

Fluoride and treatment

Treatment on file: aeration, chlorine disinfection, sand or media filtration.

The health department reports 1.48 mg/L of natural fluoride for North Hampton Village, above the target.

Measured fluoride: 1.45 mg/L on average at the plant's entry points in 2017 (above the target); samples ran from 1.45 to 1.5 mg/L across 2 samples in 2012 to 2019 (EPA compliance monitoring). Natural fluoride in Ohio well water runs from a trace to over 2 mg/L in parts of the northwest.

The health department counts 28.7% of Clark County residents on community water as receiving fluoridated water.

Ohio law (ORC 6109.20, 1969) makes systems serving 5,000 or more people fluoridate unless the water already carries 0.8 mg/L naturally or the community exempted itself by ordinance or referendum in the months after the law passed; smaller systems choose for themselves. The treatment list is what each system registered with EPA and can lag a plant upgrade.

Algal toxins

North Hampton Village draws groundwater, which Ohio does not monitor for algal toxins; blooms are a surface-water problem.

Groundwater

Under the surface

till over sand and gravel, part of the Farmersville End Moraine Aquifer (end moraine setting); wells there yield 5 - 25 gallons a minute, deposits 25 - 100 ft thick

Bedrock

Cedarville Dolomite, Springfield Dolomite, and Euphemia Dolomite undivided, includes Massie Shale and Laurel Dolomite where present, yielding 25 - 100 gpm to a well

Sole source

inside the EPA-designated Greater Miami sole source aquifer, the area's only practical supply of drinking water

Setting

Sand and Gravel; water table 30-50 ft down, 4-7 in/yr recharge, clay loam soil (hydrogeologic setting 7Ja); pesticide index 136

Well logs

9 drilled wells on file (28.8 per 1,000 residents), median 84 ft deep, 10 gallons a minute median test yield, water 24 ft down

Aquifers

71% of wells in bedrock, 29% in sand, gravel and other unconsolidated material; typical well drilled 1975, 4 since 2000; uses: Domestic 5, Monitor 4

Wellhead protection

2% of this ZIP lies inside Ohio EPA source water protection areas for 1 public water system (North Hampton Village PWS), 2% inside inner management zones, the ground a well draws from within a year; the largest, North Hampton Village PWS, is rated moderate susceptibility in a sand in till moraine setting

Geology

36% of the ZIP is a sensitive geologic setting, where thin or sandy cover leaves the aquifer open to what soaks in from the surface; its population center sits on Silurian-Devonian limestone and dolomite known to form karst, under more than 20 ft of drift; nearest verified sinkhole 4.9 mi away (Ohio EPA and ODNR Geological Survey)

Water table

CL-9 OH monitoring well (ODNR), 5.4 mi away: water 27.3 ft below ground on 2026-07-26; averaged 27.3 ft in 2015 to 2019 and 28 ft over the latest year, so the table is running about 0.7 ft lower; range 21.7 to 33.5 ft over 3,814 readings since 2015

Nitrate risk

EPA researchers put the chance that a public water system in the Donnels Creek subwatershed exceeds the nitrate limit at 31% if it draws on groundwater and 39% if it draws on rivers or lakes, judged from land use, geology and past results (EnviroAtlas nitrate violation index; the typical Ohio subwatershed scores 23% for groundwater and 39% for surface water)

Quality monitoring

Ohio EPA's nearest ambient groundwater monitoring well is New Carlisle Wellfield (Clark County), 5.5 mi away: 113 ft deep in sand and gravel (Honey Creek aquifer); wells there yield 25 to 100 gallons a minute; sampled every 18 months. 12 active wells within 15 mi

Vulnerability rates how easily a spill at the surface reaches the aquifer, not whether anything has. Well logs include abandoned and replaced wells, so counts overstate wells in use; a private well owner is the only one who tests it.

Aquifer exposure

Karst

the population center sits on Silurian-Devonian limestone and dolomite known to form karst, under more than 20 ft of drift; no mapped sinkhole inside the ZIP; nearest verified sinkhole 4.9 mi from the center

Wellhead protection

2% of the ZIP lies inside Ohio EPA source water protection areas for 1 public water system (North Hampton Village PWS), 2% inside inner management zones, the ground a well draws from within a year; the largest, North Hampton Village PWS, is rated moderate susceptibility in a sand in till moraine setting

Vulnerability index

DRASTIC 115 (ODNR; higher means a spill at the surface reaches the aquifer more easily)

Sensitive settings are outwash plains, buried valleys, karst and shallow bedrock, mapped statewide by Ohio EPA for siting decisions. Exposure is not contamination: it says how quickly a spill, a failing tank or heavy manure would reach the water table, not whether one has.

Compliance

12 of the last 12 quarters with a violation; currently in violation (not significant); 2 effluent limit exceedances in 3 years

Sludge source: nearest Chateau Estates MHP, 1 mi away; 4 within 10 miles (Ohio EPA).

State water loans: no Ohio EPA revolving-fund project inside this ZIP; the nearest is Water System Improvements (Greenlawn Village Condominum Unit Owners, Inc., 2015, $496,997), 4.2 mi away.

Sewer planning: 0% of it is assigned to Clark County as the designated sewage management agency under Ohio's Clean Water Act section 208 plan (generic prescriptions); 100% has no designated agency, which usually means septic systems. The 208 plan decides who may build and extend sewers.

Stormwater: this ZIP lies outside Ohio EPA's regulated MS4 areas, so its storm drains and ditches carry runoff without a municipal stormwater permit.

Where a home's sewage actually goes depends on the sewer district, and rural homes are on septic systems the county health department permits; the nearest plant is a proxy. Violations range from paperwork to raw discharges.

Watersheds here: Donnels Creek (not supporting).

Nearest stream assessment (Ohio EPA): E. Fk. Honey Creek @ New Carlisle-St Paris Rd. on the East Fork Honey Creek, 2.9 mi away, draining 9 square miles: full attainment of its warmwater use; fish IBI 42 of 60 (2009); bugs rated good; habitat QHEI 47 of 100. 2 within 3 miles, 17 within 10. Scores above about 40 (IBI), 36 (ICI) and 60 (QHEI) mean a healthy warmwater stream.

Stream designations (Ohio EPA water quality standards): 0.8 miles of designated streams cross this ZIP: 0.8 mi warmwater habitat. Nearest specially protected stream: the Chapman creek, 3.5 mi away, a Superior High Quality Water. Exceptional and coldwater streams are the state's healthiest; modified and limited-resource waters are channelized or ditched.

Proposed for 2026: the nearest reach Ohio EPA proposes to add to the antidegradation tiers is the Indian Creek, 5.9 mi away, as Superior High Quality Water.

PFAS in the river (Ohio EPA large river survey): at Mad R. Near Enon @ Snider Rd., 7.4 mi away, the water carried 434.8 ng/L of total PFAS (PFOA 2.2, PFOS 100 ng/L). Drinking water limits are 4 ng/L for PFOA and PFOS; river water is not drinking water, but treatment plants that draw from it start from these numbers.

Farm chemicals (USGS estimate, 2018): farms in Clark County used about 167 metric tons of pesticide active ingredient, 415 kg per square mile, 30th of Ohio's 88 counties. Largest: glyphosate 57 t, atrazine 35 t, acetochlor 16 t, metolachlor 15 t, 2,4-D 9 t. Atrazine, the corn herbicide, is the pesticide that most often shows up in Ohio tap water after spring rains; this county used 35 t of it.

Farms (2022 Census of Agriculture): 833 farms work 170,922 acres of Clark County, with 56.3% of its land in cropland, 205 acres to a farm. 14,487 cattle, 43,198 hogs, 2,438 laying hens, 4,338 broilers, 8 turkeys; 62,886 acres of corn and 66,716 of soybeans. Sales $196 million, 28% from animals and animal products. Manure and fertilizer from farms like these carry the phosphorus and nitrogen behind Ohio's algae and nitrate problems; withheld figures protect individual farms.

A watershed unit fails when any sampled stream in it fails; ditches in flat farm country fail on habitat and nutrients, city creeks on bacteria and sediment. Ohio's own report is at epa.ohio.gov; the EPA link on each unit's report page has the sampling detail.

Road salt: nearest went to City of Springfield (equipment, 2024-2025), 8.2 mi away; 1 in Clark County. H2Ohio pays for brine makers, calibrated spreaders and covered salt barns so less chloride reaches streams and wells.

The population center sits in the Donnels Creek subwatershed; its water runs on through Rock Run-Mad River, then Jackson Creek-Mad River, then Huffman Dam-Mad River.

In 2015 Clark County drew about 25 million gallons a day of fresh water (USGS): 16.2 million for public supply (100% from wells, 96,200 people served at 118 gallons a person a day at home), 0.1 million for industry, 4.7 million for irrigation, 0.3 million for mining; 39,700 residents drew their own well water.

EnviroAtlas, Donnels Creek: under 50 acres in the Conservation Reserve Program; 11,095 acres of grain crops; 39 miles of streams (1.5 per square mile); water use of 423 thousand gallons a day for homes and 317 thousand for farms; 40.7 inches of rain and snow a year; 10.3 kg of nitrogen per hectare falling from the air each year; farm nitrogen of 0.1 kg per hectare a year as manure and 54.3 kg as synthetic fertilizer; 20% of the farmland sits on drained hydric soils; potentially restorable wetlands on farmland cover 40% of the subwatershed; 1.9% of the land is paved or roofed; 39% of the stream banks keep natural cover (EPA EnviroAtlas national metrics, 2010s vintages).

Stream permits: none of this ZIP drains to streams Ohio EPA rates high quality, so stream crossings and fills here can use the Army Corps' blanket nationwide permits under Ohio EPA's standing 401 certification (Ohio EPA 401 nationwide permit eligibility map).

Gas transmission pipelines

No transmission line crosses this ZIP.

Transmission lines run at hundreds of pounds of pressure and are inspected under federal rules; the distribution mains that actually feed homes are a separate, denser network not shown here. By mileage in this EIA layer Ohio's map is dominated by Columbia Gas Transmission and East Ohio Gas's intrastate lines; Texas Eastern and the Rover and Nexus lines built for Utica shale gas are among the other large interstate systems.

Rail crossings

Clark County has logged 11 rail accidents since 2010, 11 of them derailments (FRA Form 54). Yard mishaps at walking speed dominate; main-line derailments are the rare, dangerous ones.

Train counts and speeds are the railroad's last inventory update. Crossings with only crossbucks rely on the driver; Ohio has averaged about 77 crossing collisions a year from 2010 to 2025 (FRA Form 57), between 64 and 87 in a year.

Ratings come from the inspection every bridge gets at least every two years; poor means deterioration that needs repair, not imminent danger. FHWA's file is a yearly snapshot with inspections through early 2025, so a bridge replaced, re-rated or closed since then still shows its old rating here; ODOT's TIMS bridge inventory carries the current one. Traffic figures are the average daily counts the bridge owners filed with the inventory; most Ohio counts date from 2015 and some are older. County engineers own most of Ohio's small bridges and ODOT the big ones.

Traffic

Trucks

Driving

about 3K vehicle-miles a day on the 3 counted segments inside the ZIP; the typical segment carries 6,189 vehicles

Annual average daily traffic is both directions combined, averaged over the year. County, township and city roads are labelled by their route number, which ODOT uses instead of the street name. Most city streets have no count, so the busiest local road is the busiest counted one. Interchange ramps are left out of the busiest-road pick; a ZIP with nothing but ramps shows one labelled ramp and its ODOT number.

Degree days

5,808 heating, 802 cooling (base 65°F): the higher the heating number, the bigger the winter gas bill

Drought (U.S. Drought Monitor): since 2020 Clark County has spent 39 weeks in moderate drought or worse, 4 of them severe or worse (most recently 4 weeks in 2024), and 79 weeks at least abnormally dry. The worst since 2000 was extreme drought in 2024/09; 7% of all weeks since 2000 were in drought. As of 2026-09-01: no drought.

Long run (NOAA, Clark County): the average year ran 52.3 °F over 1996 to 2025 against 50.4 °F over 1901 to 1930, 1.9 °F warmer (1.7 °F warmer than 1951 to 1980); the warmest year on record was 2024 at 55.7 °F, and 2025 came in at 52.6 °F. Precipitation averaged 43.2 inches a year lately against 39.0 a century ago, 11% more; the wettest year was 2011 with 58.3 inches, and 2025 brought 42.7. More rain in bigger bursts is what strains storm sewers and septic fields.

Stations: Springfield WTP (7.1 mi, temperature); New Carlisle (6.4 mi, precipitation and snowfall; 13 years of snowfall record). Normals are thirty-year averages, so a single winter can run far above or below them; NOAA marks this snowfall normal provisional because the station record is too short or too patchy for a standard normal, and the temperature and precipitation figures here skip stations with under 10 years.

Air standards

Clark County is a maintenance area for fine particulate (1997) (Dayton-Springfield, OH, redesignated 2013), meaning it once failed that standard and must keep a plan to stay clean (EPA Green Book)

Ohio has 38 PM2.5 monitors, mostly in cities and near industry, so a rural ZIP borrows a reading from far away. 2025 includes Canadian wildfire smoke days. Air-toxics risk is EPA's modelled lifetime estimate for the county as a whole; EPA's national average is about 30 in a million, and formaldehyde, with the globally mixed carbon tetrachloride background and acetaldehyde, makes up most of it.
