Where Does the City of Hudson Water Come From?
The water for Hudson water customers comes from five underground wells. In general, there is a great deal more consistency in water quality readings with ground well water resources as opposed to surface water resources, such as from lakes or streams.
Hudson Water Quality
The City of Hudson owns and operates its own water treatment plant that ensures safe, potable water is delivered to its customers.

Hudson Water Department History and Mission
The City's first water plant was located 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. Today, Hudson's Water Resources Department operates five underground wells and operates its water own water treatment plant to provide safe drinking water to its approximately 2,300 customers.
Our mission is to produce, treat, and deliver safe, potable, high quality water from the well field to the treatment plant, the elevated storage towers and ultimately to the consumers' tap.
