This is the location for the Avon Lake Municipal Utilities water filtration plant responsible for providing clean water to 180,000 individuals in seven counties. The water filtration plant, created in 1925, now has the ability to treat 40 million gallons of water every day and uses state-of-the-art technology to remove dirt and bacteria. The plant provides high-quality water to people in a 600-square-mile area and is one of the largest plants in Northeast Ohio. The Water Pollution Control Center, established in 1960, has undergone several expansions. The center is responsible for ensuring that waste water is treated before returning to Lake Erie. The wastewater plant is beside Beachpark Towers. This location, which sits on Lake Erie's shores, is strictly for treating water. The Avon Lake Municipal Utilities maintains management offices on Miller Road.
