Living in Hebron, PA: what to set up and who to call

Hebron has no town government of its own, so Lebanon County runs its elections and most services, and its children attend Cornwall-Lebanon School District. Lebanon Water Auth reported one health-based violation to EPA in the last five years: a groundwater treatment requirement (Groundwater Rule), beginning Nov 2021.
