The Harris County Water System provides water for about 20,062 residents living in the Hamilton area. Established in 1827, the Harris County Water System collects water from three water sources consisting of, one surface water source and two purchased water sources: (1) drawn from the Chattahoochee River at Lake Harding via Harris County Water Filtration Plant on Bartletts Ferry Road; (2) purchased from the City of Columbus which pumps water from the Chattahoochee River at Lake Oliver when the demand arises; and (3) purchased from Talbot County via the City of Manchester & Columbus Water Works to a small part of the distribution system.
