Soil Study Investigation for the City’s Water Main Program
The City of Huber Heights contracted with Bowser Morner to conducte a soils study on five different streets (Tomberg Street, Ansbury Drive, Hubbard Drive, Barnard Drive and Hemmingway Road) to determine the subgrade soil conditions. One boring was made on each street. The purpose of this study was to determine the physical characteristics of the soil strata and groundwater depths. The report details the conditions found at these borings and the results of the study were then compared with the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) Soil Classifications provided in the Soil Survey of Montgomery County, Ohio. Attached below, is a Summary of the report along with the full complete report showing the results of the investigation.

Comparing Your Own Rates
If you are not happy with AES's default rate or the aggregation rate obtained by the City, residents do have the option of comparing and locking in their own rate by visiting the following website:
https://www.energychoice.ohio.gov/
Once you are on the website, follow these steps:
- Click the Compare Offers Now button in the middle of the page.
- Choose Electric or Natural Gas.
- Choose Residential and then AES Ohio (DP&L) for electric or CenterPoint Energy (Vectren) for natural gas.
- This will bring you to the Apples to ApplesComparison Rate Chart. It is usually best to choose a supplier that has zero early termination fees, no monthly fees, and a fixed rate. You will also want to check the length of the program, if desired and make sure there is no intro fee. You can use the filters in the red area on the left-hand side of the page to narrow your search (place zeros in the blanks under early termination fee and monthly fee and click on Filter Results).
- Once you have reviewed the suppliers and have decided on a rate, click on the red Sign Up button at the bottom of the box. This will then take you to that energy supplier’s website where you will need to enter your personal information, including your current utility account number. You can also call the listed phone number to sign up through a representative.
Please contact Russ Bergman, City Engineer, with questions by email or by calling (937) 237-5816.
