Ottoville Village is owned by a local government, with 485 service connections serving 976 people; it has substantially implemented source water protection under Ohio's program. Office: 419-303-5778 (SDWIS).

EPA modeled the service boundary of Ottoville Village (decision tree) rather than drawing it from the utility's map, so its edges are approximate.

Wells: EPA lists 3 active wells. ODNR well logs locate 2 public-supply wells inside Ottoville Village's wellhead protection zone, 434 to 449 ft deep, in shale and limestone. Zoom in to see them as dots.

Treatment & pressure

How it is treated

Groundwater from 3 wells (#3, #4, #6) is pumped through an aerator, chlorinated, and stored in clear wells, then polished through sand pressure filters before distribution. Plant built 1982 (with two later upgrades), rated 0.325 MGD, averaging about 134,000 gallons/day; two elevated tanks (100,000…

Supply stress

Ohio EPA's source water assessment reportedly rates Ottoville's aquifer as 'high susceptibility to contamination' due to a thin clay layer over the aquifer and nearby contaminant sources; fluoride occurs naturally near (but under) the MCL.

Estimated, not measured. No rain gauge has ever stood inside 45876 (Ottoville), 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.

48,879 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.

Facilities are placed on the map from Ohio EPA's own map layers, EPA's Facility Registry, coordinates written in the filings, or a geocoded street address. A permit filed under a private person's name (most are household septic systems) is counted but never named, placed or linked; licenses for individual workers and open-burning notices are left out entirely.
