Lead in Drinking Water: A Permanent Solution for New Jersey

This report from the Jersey Water Works Lead in Drinking Water Task Force lays out 19 interdependent actions which, as a package, the Task Force expects can virtually eliminate lead in water within 10 years.

The report recognizes that drinking water utilities are on the front lines and need funding solutions and other tools from state government; many of the recommended actions address this reality.
