History

The Miami County Water and Wastewater Division was established in the early 1970’s when the County assumed ownership and operational responsibilities of the water and wastewater systems located in Shenandoah, Creekwood, Brokenwoods, Meadowview and Woodlawn subdivisions. In 1972, the County took over the Dettmer Hospital water supply system and wastewater treatment plant. Today the Miami County Sanitary Engineer operates and maintains the water and wastewater systems in Bethel, Concord, Monroe and Springcreek Townships along with Upper Valley Medical Center. And this division also maintains the wastewater systems in the villages of Fletcher and Casstown. Currently, Miami County serves 2,430 customers with water and sewer.

The Water and Wastewater Division works closely with surrounding government and private purveyors of water and sewer. The County continues to study ways to improve and develop their systems to help with development, upgrades and better service to its customers and potential customers.

The Water and Wastewater Division currently employees a Superintendent, a customer service technician and four system technicians. The employees are licensed with the Ohio EPA in either Water or Wastewater or both. They are required to undergo continuous training to maintain their licenses and the ever changing technology of the water and sewer business.
