Fremont, Ohio
Fremont (formerly Lower Sandusky) is a city in and the county seat of Sandusky County, Ohio, United States, located along the west bank of the Sandusky River. It is about 40 miles from Toledo. The population was 16,734 at the 2010 census.
The city was the home of Rutherford B. Hayes, who served as President of the United States from 1877 to 1881. The Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center was the first presidential library and is one of the focal points of the city. The National Arbor Day Foundation designated Fremont as a Tree City USA.
Fremont developed at the site of Junquindundeh, a historic Wyandot village along the west bank of the lower Sandusky River, near the falls and about upstream from the mouth at Sandusky Bay. In the 1750s a French trading post was established there. The British took over the post and the territory after its victory in the French and Indian War.
In 1787, after gaining independence, the United States established the Northwest Territory for unorganized lands west of the states, which included this area. In 1803 the southeastern portion of the Territory was admitted to the Union as part of the new state of Ohio. Under the terms of Ohio's admission as a state, the area of Lower Sandusky was defined as Indian Territory. The European Americans who settled here were violating the Treaty of Greenville of 1795, which was intended to preserve some land for Native Americans.
In the early 1800s tensions increased with Great Britain and the US established a boycott on trade with Britain, including Canada. The US built Fort Sandusky near the river to guard a supply depot. Its name was changed to Fort Stephenson during the War of 1812. The Battle of Fort Stephenson was fought there in August 1813. The troops were commanded by Major George Croghan, who held off the British attack with a small garrison. During the War of 1812 the United State...

Fremont's Ballville Dam
Ballville Dam was built on the Sandusky River in 1913 for hydroelectric power generation and is approximately 407 feet long and 34.4 feet high. The impounded section of the Sandusky River extends upstream from the dam approximately 2.1 miles (3.4 km), and the surface area is approximately 89.3 acres. The dam was originally built as a run-of-the-river hydroelectric generation facility by the Fremont Power and Light Company, which later became the Ohio Power Company. The City bought the land and facilities in 1959 and re-purposed the dam to provide the City’s water supply. Since the purchase of Ballville Dam by the City in 1959, the impounded area has been used as a source of public water. Progressive deterioration of the dam and associated sea wall has been noted in successive inspections beginning in 1980; however, the last known maintenance performed on the structure occurred in 1969. In February 2008, the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency issued a Findings and Orders notification to the City citing numerous Ohio Administrative Code Rule violations related to the operation of the Public Water System. To address this, an off channel reservoir was constructed and became operational in February 2013 and is currently the primary source of water for the City of Fremont.
