Ridgewood NJ, yesterday February 21st was the cut day to be notified if your water was being delivered to your residence via lead pipes. According to the NJDEP website, water systems in NJ are required to notify residents, non-paying consumers (e.g., a renter not responsible for the water bill), and any off-site owner of a property (e.g., landlord) when it is known they are served by a lead service line no later than February 21, 2022. Water systems will also be required to replace all lead service lines in their service area by 2031.
