Wauseon Upground Reservoir No. 1 Dam is fed offstream by the in Fulton County, Ohio and is used for drinking water and recreation purposes. Construction was completed in 1921. It has a normal surface area of 13.7 acres. It is owned by the City Of Wauseon.

In August of 2001, the City of Wauseon’s resevoir began receiving water from a large pipeline from the Maumee River 15 miles to the south. Since then, this is where the majority of Wauseon’s water comes from. The City of Wauseon also receives its drinking water from two creeks that collect runoff from a total area of 6.6 square miles. Big Ditch is west of the plant, and this water is mainly from field runoff. Stuckey Ditch is east of the plant, and this water is from field and street runoff from the city. All water is sent to Wauseon’s two side by side reservoirs before entering the water plant.
