Introduction

I. Services:

A. Water: To provide the production, treatment, and delivery of safe, potable, high quality water from the well field to the treatment plant, then to the elevated storage towers and ultimately to the consumers' tap.

B. Wastewater: To provide collection of the City's wastewater to the Hudson Pumping Station from where it is then pumped to the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District's Southerly Plant for treatment.

II. Resources:

The Water Resources Division oversees the above aspects of drinking water production and wastewater handling and pumping. Water Treatment duties include operating and maintaining the water supply well-field, the water treatment plant and three elevated water storage tanks. Wastewater Pumping duties include operating and maintaining seven sewer lift stations around the City, the main pumping station, and nine miles of the wastewater transmission line. The City of Hudson has a total of 45 miles of wastewater collection lines.

III. History:

A. Water: The City's first water plant was on Oviatt Street and the water source was from nearby underground wells. Mr. James W. Ellsworth was the driving force and main financial backer of this initial system. It operated from 1912 until 1969 when the water plant moved to its present site on West Streetsboro Street west of town.

B. Wastewater: The City's first wastewater treatment plant was behind the current Hudson Public Power Facility on Morse Rd. In 1962, Hudson built a new wastewater treatment plant on property purchased from Cuyahoga County off of Hines Hill Road and adjacent to the Ohio Turnpike. The treated wastewater effluent was discharged into Brandywine Creek. In May of 1998, the Hudson Plant stopped wastewater treatment and discharge at the plant. A new pumping station facility was constructed at the Hines Hill site. The Pumping Station receives the City's wastewater and pumps it to the Cleveland Southerly Plant where the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District now assumes the responsibility for the treatment and discharge of Hudson's wastewater / sewer.
