Did you know the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) data shows that nearly 400 spills occur each year with the potential to impact drinking water sources, and only 57.1% of utilities currently have a formal source water protection program in place? By creating comprehensive source water protection programs, private, regulated water utilities are proactively strengthening operational readiness and resiliency, while protecting drinking water sources.

About 70% of New Jersey’s drinking water comes from the New Jersey Highlands, so monitoring those waters is crucial. With a charitable grant from the American Water Charitable Foundation and support from New Jersey American Water, The Musky - Musconetcong Watershed Association expanded its PFAS sampling across the Musconetcong watershed to learn more about water quality and where additional attention may be needed. See how the partnership is helping them better understand and protect the watershed. #ProtectTheSource #SourceWaterProtectionWeek
