• The village's first water system in 1937 served only 84 customers; the system now has 870 service connections.
• Hebron's water reclamation plant uses an 'Orbal oxidation ditch' -- a racetrack-shaped biological treatment loop -- ahead of tertiary sand filtration and UV disinfection, replacing an older 1960s plant that was…
• Hebron's 2025 water-quality testing, including its first round of PFAS screening under the new federal rule, came back non-detect or well under federal limits across every parameter listed in its CCR.

• 1935-1937Negotiations for a village water system began in 1935; pumping to the first 84 customers started in 1937.
• 1952-1964Village pursued legislation for sewers and enlarged water facilities, which became operational by 1964.
• 1983-1989Water/sewer system expanded twice, eventually growing to serve well over 700 users (today 870 service connections).
• 2005Ohio EPA source water assessment reportedly rated Hebron's aquifer 'LOW' susceptibility to contamination (per village's own site; original SWAP document not independently located this session).

How it is treated

Groundwater from 4 wells (150-320 ft deep, combined capacity 3.2 MGD) is pre-oxidized (sodium permanganate/cascade aeration) to remove iron and manganese, coagulated/softened with hydrated lime (pH raised to ~11), stabilized with CO2 recarbonation (pH lowered to ~8.5), filtered through dual-media…

Likely low: the village's own site cites a 2005 Ohio EPA source water assessment rating the aquifer 'LOW' susceptibility due to a protective clay layer, and a 2025 PFAS screening (first of two required rounds) found no detections. The original 2005 SWAP document was not independently located this session, so this is kept at reduced…

Village of Hebron owns and operates its own Water Reclamation Facility (POTW) -- extended-air activated sludge with Orbal oxidation ditch, tertiary sand filtration and UV disinfection -- discharging to Beaver Run, operating since Nov. 2006 and replacing an overloaded 1963-64 plant. Local discharge limits for industrial users were set…
