History
Orange-Alamance Water System, Inc. is a non-profit membership corporation organized in 1965 to serve water to the rural areas of Orange and Alamance counties. Mr. Wiley Perry started out to build a housing development named Perry Hills, which was also to include a shopping center and a school, and ended up helping to form Orange-Alamance Water System, Inc. Orange-Alamance began serving water to it's first customers in August 1968 before there was water in the lake on the Eno. The corporation purchased water from the Town of Mebane from August of 1968 until June of 1969. In May of 1969, the impoundment on the Eno was filled and the water system switched in June of 1969 to using water from it's own supply, furnishing the water to approximately 350 customers. The water system currently serves 3442 customers. The water system sources include Corporation Lake, three wells, and purchased water from the City of Burlington through the Town of Haw River. Lake Orange provides additional water during drought conditions.
