About

The Water Quality Laboratories are responsible for the collection and analysis of samples, which will ensure that the water being distributed meets or exceeds the criteria of the Safe Drinking Water Act. Compliance reports are sent to the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency monthly with the analytical results for regulated contaminants. This is accomplished by the annual collection and analysis of more than 5,000 water samples from the water plant and over 2,500 samples from the distribution network. The consistent high quality of water is of utmost importance to the Water Treatment Plant. That is why over 50,000 tests are performed annually from the water samples taken at the raw water source, through the production and treatment process, distribution network and from consumer taps.
