ZIP code 45433: Bath Township and Dayton

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

10.9 µg/L yearly mean in 2019, the last year in the file (limit 80); worst yearly mean 21, highest single sample 23.6; 37 samples from 2012 to 2019

HAA5

1.2 µg/L yearly mean in the last year sampled (limit 60); worst yearly mean 5.9, highest sample 6.6; 37 samples

Nitrate

highest of 16 samples was 2.55 mg/L as nitrogen (2015; limit 10); 0.49 in 2019, the last year sampled. Nitrate above 10 is unsafe for infants

Arsenic

not detected in 7 samples (limit 10)

Solvents and fuels

benzene, carbon tetrachloride, 1,2-dichloroethane, trichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, vinyl chloride not detected in 36 samples

Bacteria

5 of 976 routine tap samples (0.51%) tested positive for total coliform in 2012 to 2019, 0 of 120 in 2019; E. coli found in 1 of 858 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 6 samples

Metals

barium in 7 of 7 samples, highest 175 µg/L (limit 2,000); chromium, cadmium, mercury, selenium, thallium not detected in 7 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.

PFAS

UCMR 5

4 samples in 2024 at the entry point to the distribution system: PFHxS 19, PFOS 14, PFOA 5.5 ng/L

Hazard index

1.9 for the PFHxS, PFNA, GenX and PFBS mixture; above 1 exceeded the 2024 mixture limit that EPA moved in 2025 to rescind

Sources

The system reported a known PFAS source near its supply

Ohio EPA 2020

2 plants tested (latest 2021-05): PFHxS 25.4 ppt, against Ohio's action level of 140 ppt; PFOS 13.2 ppt against 70 ppt

Ohio EPA latest

2 plants sampled by Ohio EPA, most recently 2026-08 (Ohio EPA statewide sampling status map)

Firefighting foam: 2 fire departments or other holders in Greene County registered 170 gallons of PFAS-based AFFF foam with Ohio EPA, 30 gallons in opened containers; the state is collecting it for disposal so it is never sprayed again.

Lithium: not detected in 4 UCMR 5 samples at Wright-patterson Afb Area B (the method reports from 9 µg/L). Lithium is unregulated; EPA's draft health reference level is 10 µg/L, and it occurs naturally in deep groundwater, so well systems in the northwest run highest.

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

0 ppb in the sampling period ending 2025-06

Highest since 2016

2.5 ppb (2024-12); never above 10 ppb in 8 periods

Service lines

567 inventoried: 0 lead, 0 galvanized needing replacement, 0 unknown, 567 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: 26% of the homes here were built before 1960 and 16% before 1940, when lead service lines, lead solder and lead paint were common; 63% 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, corrosion control, chlorine disinfection, ion-exchange softening, lime softening.

Measured fluoride: 0.23 mg/L on average at the plant's entry points in 2018 (too little to protect teeth), with 1 of that year's samples below the 0.2 mg/L reporting limit and left out of the average; samples ran from 0.2 to 1.02 mg/L across 7 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 78% of Greene 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.

Compliance

0 of the last 12 quarters with a violation; no open violation

Other discharge permits: 2 facilities inside this ZIP other than sewage plants hold a Clean Water Act permit (factories, water plants, quarries, package plants, storm water); 3 facility-quarters with a violation in the last three years.

Sludge source: nearest Fairborn Water Reclamation Center, 2.6 mi away (a major plant); 9 within 10 miles (Ohio EPA).

State water loans: no Ohio EPA revolving-fund project inside this ZIP; the nearest is Mad River Conversion Dam Replacement (Dayton, 2025, $4.5 million), 2.3 mi away.

Stormwater: all of this ZIP lies inside Ohio EPA's regulated MS4 areas, mostly the Bath Township storm sewer system (2 permit holders overlap the ZIP); the towns, townships and counties that own those storm sewers hold a stormwater permit and must control what runs off streets and parking lots (2020 to 2030 designation).

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.

Nearest stream assessment (Ohio EPA): Mad R. Dst. Fairborn Wwtp on the Mad River, 1.9 mi away, draining 616 square miles: full attainment of its warmwater use; fish IBI 44 of 60 (2020); bug ICI 50 of 60 (2020); habitat QHEI 79.3 of 100. 1 within 3 miles, 40 within 10. Scores above about 40 (IBI), 36 (ICI) and 60 (QHEI) mean a healthy warmwater stream.

Stream designations (Ohio EPA water quality standards): 2.8 miles of designated streams cross this ZIP: 2.8 mi modified warmwater habitat. Nearest specially protected stream: the Great Miami river (Lost creek (RM 100.0) to the CSX railroad bridge (RM 84.5)), 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 Mad River (Macochee creek (RM 51.75) to the mouth), 1.5 mi away, as Outstanding State Water for recreation.

PFAS in the river (Ohio EPA large river survey): at Mad R. Dst. Fairborn Wwtp, 1.9 mi away, the water carried 181.2 ng/L of total PFAS (PFOA 1.1, PFOS 7.4 ng/L); fish fillets held 369.545 ng/g in bluegill (PFOS 335 in bluegill). 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 Greene County used about 144 metric tons of pesticide active ingredient, 346 kg per square mile, 35th of Ohio's 88 counties. Largest: glyphosate 54 t, atrazine 20 t, metolachlor 11 t, acetochlor 10 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 20 t of it.

Farms (2022 Census of Agriculture): 897 farms work 156,287 acres of Greene County, with 49.5% of its land in cropland, 174 acres to a farm. 4,549 cattle, 13,695 hogs, 6,323 laying hens, 1,061 broilers, 143 turkeys; 50,907 acres of corn and 65,907 of soybeans. Sales $144 million, 11% 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.

H2Ohio: nearest project Tipp City Off-Channel Wetland, inland floodplain wetland, funded 2021, completed, 12 mi away: This project restored off-channel habitat along the Great Miami River near the confluence of Honey Creek in Tipp City, Ohio, creating restored wetlands, a flood...; 0 within 5 miles, 6 within 15. H2Ohio pays for wetlands, farm practices and lead line work to cut the nutrients behind Lake Erie's algae.

Source water: 100% of this ZIP drains to the river intake of Dayton Public Water System and sits inside its Ohio EPA source water protection area; 24% lies in the 1,000-foot stream corridor zone where spills and runoff matter most.

Watershed grants: nearest "Upper Little Miami River and Caesar Creek Watershed Project" by Greene County SWCD (stream restoration, Section 319), 6.4 mi away; 4 within 10 miles (Ohio EPA project lists: Section 319 and GLRI through fiscal 2023, SWIF through 2017).

Road salt: nearest went to City of Beavercreek (equipment, 2024-2025), 6.4 mi away; 1 in Greene County. H2Ohio pays for brine makers, calibrated spreaders and covered salt barns so less chloride reaches streams and wells.

Watershed plan: the Huffman Dam-Mad River subwatershed around this ZIP's center has an Ohio EPA-approved nine-element nonpoint source plan (2023), the blueprint that makes its farms, streambanks and communities eligible for federal Section 319 runoff grants.

The population center sits in the Huffman Dam-Mad River subwatershed; its water runs on through City of Dayton-Mad River, then Poplar Creek-Great Miami River, then Town of Oakwood-Great Miami River.

In 2015 Greene County drew about 17 million gallons a day of fresh water (USGS): 9 million for public supply (100% from wells, 120,900 people served at 59 gallons a person a day at home), 0.7 million for industry, 2 million for irrigation, 1.8 million for mining; 43,500 residents drew their own well water.

EnviroAtlas, Huffman Dam-Mad River: 100 to 200 acres in the Conservation Reserve Program; 2,315 acres of grain crops; 34 miles of streams (1.2 per square mile); water use of 2.2 million gallons a day for homes and 278 thousand for farms; 41 inches of rain and snow a year; 11.4 kg of nitrogen per hectare falling from the air each year; farm nitrogen of 0 kg per hectare a year as manure and 13.9 kg as synthetic fertilizer; 4% of the farmland sits on drained hydric soils; potentially restorable wetlands on farmland cover 7% of the subwatershed; 22% of the land is paved or roofed; 37% 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.

Rated poor

Hebble Creek Road over Hebble Creek (1976, 1,000 a day)

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 27K vehicle-miles a day on the 28 counted segments inside the ZIP; the typical segment carries 6,139 vehicles

Busiest local road

county road 46, 11,754 vehicles a day

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.

Climate

Temperature

53.3°F average; typical January low 20°, July high 87°

Hot and cold days

39 days a year reach 90°F; 107 nights fall below freezing, 3 below 0°F; 29 days never climb above freezing

Rain and snow

41.6 inches of precipitation on 80 days with a tenth of an inch or more; 12 inches of snow on 5 days with an inch or more, snow on the ground 22 days

Degree days

5,432 heating, 1,191 cooling (base 65°F): the higher the heating number, the bigger the winter gas bill

Drought (U.S. Drought Monitor): since 2020 Greene County has spent 36 weeks in moderate drought or worse, 4 of them severe or worse (most recently 4 weeks in 2024), and 73 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, Greene County): the average year ran 53.0 °F over 1996 to 2025 against 50.9 °F over 1901 to 1930, 2.1 °F warmer (1.8 °F warmer than 1951 to 1980); the warmest year on record was 2024 at 56.1 °F, and 2025 came in at 52.8 °F. Precipitation averaged 43.0 inches a year lately against 40.2 a century ago, 7% more; the wettest year was 2011 with 58.8 inches, and 2025 brought 42.7. More rain in bigger bursts is what strains storm sewers and septic fields.

Stations: Dayton Mcd (7.1 mi, temperature and precipitation and snowfall; 10 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.

Permitted sources

1 permitted air source inside this ZIP under the Clean Air Act (1 major, Title V); none had a violation in the last 3 years. Notable: Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (major) (EPA ECHO)

Air standards

Greene 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.

Assessed wetland: nearest American Legion, a mixed emergent marsh of 10 acres, 3.4 mi away: ORAM 40 of 100 (category 2), plant community index 29 of 100 (surveyed 1998); 3 within 10 miles. Category 3 wetlands are the state's best and hardest to fill; category 1 are degraded.

Mapped from aerial photography, mostly 2004 to 2007 (the Lake Erie watersheds were re-mapped from 2021 imagery, a few areas date from 1976 to 2005 or 2014 to 2023), so small and seasonal wetlands are undercounted and ponds dug or filled since then are missing; a site delineation decides whether a lot is jurisdictional. Emergent means marsh, forested and shrub means swamp.

Land cover

Developed

94%: 12% high intensity (downtown blocks, big-box lots), 14% medium (apartments, small-lot houses), 14% low (houses on larger lots), 55% open space (lawns, parks, golf courses, road verges)

Farmland

0.3%: 0.0% row crops, 0.3% pasture and hay

Forest

5.1%

Water and wetland

0.9% open water, 0.1% wetland

Paved and roofed

26% of the ZIP's surface is impervious; rain that lands there runs straight to a storm drain or stream instead of soaking in

Tree canopy

9% of the ZIP sits under tree canopy

Area

7.1 square miles of land

Land cover is classified from Landsat imagery at 30 metre pixels, so a house on a wooded lot can read as forest and a farm lane as open space. Stream health starts to slip once about 10% of a watershed is impervious, and is usually poor above 25%.

Unemployment-insurance records tie each job to a workplace and a home address; large employers sometimes report every worker at a headquarters, which inflates a few ZIPs. Self-employment, the military, the Postal Service, most farm work and a large part of federal civilian employment are missing (federal jobs come from OPM records that omit several agencies and, in practice, most of Wright-Patterson).

Rates cover the whole agency's territory, not this ZIP alone: a city's downtown and its quiet edges share one number. Murders, rapes and assaults are counted once per victim and other offenses once per incident, as the FBI's Crime Data Explorer does; a large department's figures can still fall somewhat short of the Explorer's, which takes in later submissions, and a sheriff's population is only the unincorporated area it serves.
