MIDDLESEX WATER COMPANY LEAD LINE REPLACEMENT

NJ I-Bank and NJDEP Helping to Improve New Jersey's Infrastructure, One Project at a Time

Middlesex Water Company recently closed on an $18 million loan with the New Jersey Water Bank to replace lead and galvanized water service lines in Edison, Metuchen, South Amboy, South Plainfield, and Woodbridge.

Lead service lines can pose a serious public health risk when lead enters drinking water through corrosion. Galvanized service lines that are, or were previously, connected to lead piping can also capture and release lead particles over time. Replacing these lines helps reduce potential lead exposure, improve water quality, and strengthen the reliability of local drinking water infrastructure.
