Louisville Water Company has provided a safe supply of water to people in Louisville, Jefferson County, and surrounding areas since 1860. The Louisville Water Company (LWC) provides water to more than 800,000 people in Greater Louisville and parts of Oldham and Bullitt counties. They deliver on average 127 million gallons of water per day. The Ohio River provides an abundant source for drinking water. LWC draws water from the river at two points: the raw water pump station at Zorn and River Road, and the B.E. Payne Pump Station northeast of Harrods Creek. LWC also draws water from a riverbank infiltration well at the Payne Plant. The reservoir is a giant holding pool for water. The water just sits there while mud and dirt settles to the bottom. There are two reservoirs at the Crescent Hill location and each holds 55 million gallons of water. The water stays in the reservoirs for about 17-22 hours, depending on how large the demand is. Lots of people use this site as a walking path and some ducks and geese even stop by for the occasional swim.
