Ford Motor Co. chose a transmission plant site in Afton prompting Clermont County to revise water plans. In the late 1970s the county eyed expanding the Pierce Union Batavia field to 13 MGD, with 12 to 15 MGD by 1985. Plans shifted to Harsha Lake, 400 feet higher, for a primary supply, while a 10 MGD PUB line and two 1 million gallon tanks completed Phase One.
