Does the City treat the water to make it safe to drink?
The City does not have a water treatment facility for the drinking water, however, the drinking water meets State and Federal safe drinking water standards without any type of treatment.

We do add Chlorine to each well site in small amounts to ensure water quality throughout the water system. We also add Fluoride to each well site in amounts that are shown to promote dental health.

The Missouri Department of Health Laboratory tests 10 drinking water samples per month from the City of Lebanon for water quality assurance. The City has an excellent record of meeting safe drinking water standards.
