About this area's water
Did you know
- The village's wells tap an aquifer more than 80 feet down beneath a thick clay layer, which Ohio EPA's source water assessment says gives it a low susceptibility to contamination.
- The 2025 report corrects the prior year's homework: it tells readers the 2024 CCR listed gross alpha as 2.75 pCi/L when the actual result was 0.275 pCi/L.
- Small-system reality check - the lead paragraph of New Lebanon's 2025 CCR still says "The Village of Farmersville is responsible for providing high quality drinking water," a leftover from the template it was built from.
- In 2025 one of 20 lead-and-copper sampling sites came back above the 15 ppb lead action level, yet the system's 90th-percentile result was just 1.2 ppb - a reminder that lead risk in this system is house-by-house…

Treatment & pressure
How it is treated
The village treats its own groundwater. Per the 2025 Consumer Confidence Report, all drinking water comes from three groundwater production wells located next to the village water treatment plant in the northeast section of the village near Bear Creek, and the village held an unconditional Ohio EPA…

Water pressure
Not published. No system pressure figure appears in the CCR, on the village water pages, or in Ohio EPA/SDWIS records reviewed.
What it costs
No rate schedule is published. The village water page states only that "Water bills are due monthly and include water, sewer, and trash" and that bills can be paid online through…

Water quality & impurities10
| Contaminant | Level | Limit | Year |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lead (90th percentile) Below the action level, but the CCR states 1 of 20 sampled sites was above 15 ppb. | 1.2 ppb | 15 ppb action… | 2025 |
| Copper (90th percentile) 0 of 20 sites above the action level. | 0.191 ppm | 1.3 ppm action… | 2025 |
| Nitrate Runoff or leaching from fertilized soil, wastewater or septic systems; about 9% of the MCL. | 0.922 ppm | 10 ppm MCL | 2024 |
| Barium Erosion of natural deposits. | 0.0912 ppm | 2.0 ppm MCL | 2024 |
| Fluoride Very low - essentially natural background, not an optimized fluoridation level. | 0.026 ppm | 4.0 ppm MCL | 2024 |
| Total trihalomethanes (TTHM) Range 0.00-2.5 ppb; chlorination byproduct. | 2.5 ppb | 80 ppb MCL | 2025 |
| Haloacetic acids (HAA5) Not detected. | 0.000 ppb | 60 ppb MCL | 2025 |
| Total chlorine Range 0.57-3.86 ppm. | 2.22 ppm | 4 ppm MRDL | 2025 |
| Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate Discharge from rubber and chemical factories. | 0.26 ppb | 6 ppb MCL | 2025 |
| Gross alpha The 2025 CCR publishes a correction: the 2024 report had misprinted this as 2.75 pCi/L. | 0.275 pCi/L | 15 pCi/L MCL | 2024 |

EPA compliance record
Lead at the tap: 90th-percentile result 1.5 ppb in 2025 (action level 15 ppb).
EPA record: no health-based violations since 2015.
3 violations of any kind logged since 2020, 3 of them paperwork (monitoring, reporting, public notice or consumer report).
Supply stress
No drought, yield or capacity data is published. The Ohio EPA source water assessment quoted in the CCR rates the aquifer's susceptibility to contamination as low, citing a thick protective clay layer, an aquifer more than 80 feet below the surface, and no evidence of significant human-caused chemical contamination. Nitrate at 0.922 ppm…

Sewers
Sanitary
The village bills water, sewer and trash together on one monthly utility bill, so New Lebanon handles its own sanitary sewer billing. No wastewater plant name, capacity or receiving stream is published on the village site.
Storm
