💡 Attention! the NJDEP is proud to provide an additional component to the NJ Beach Monitoring Program? It’s called Environmental Coastal Monitoring (ECM) Program!

Station locations are NOT at public recreational beaches and are chosen due to their location along the shore and popularity in the local area. Sites are sampled weekly for Enterococci bacteria.

Although swimming is prohibited at these sites, NJDEP finds importance in evaluating and sharing water quality information at these locations for your health and safety.

🔗 Visit “NJBeaches.org” for more information and sample results.

🚰Day 5 of Drinking Water Week Investing in New Jersey’s Infrastructure.

The NJDEP partners with the New Jersey Infrastructure Bank to form the New Jersey Water Bank. This program offers low-cost financing opportunities for drinking water systems to address challenges such as aging infrastructure, emerging contaminants, or lead service line replacement.

Thanks to this investment, the Water Bank anticipates distributing nearly $458 million in drinking water projects by the close of Fiscal Year 2026, offsetting potential rate increases for New Jerseyans across the state. 👏

🔗More information about the Water Bank, and opportunities for water infrastructure investment are available here: https://dep.nj.gov/wiip/.

🚰 Day 4 of : Every Drop Counts—Especially Now

⚠️ All of New Jersey is under a Drought Warning after two years of unusually dry weather. Our water supplies are stressed, and without action, we could face mandatory restrictions.

The good news? You can make a difference TODAY.

💧 Simple actions, big impact:

• Limit lawn watering to 2x per week
• Fix leaky faucets & toilets
• Take shorter showers
• Run dishwashers & washing machines only when full
• Water plants early morning or evening to reduce evaporation
These steps protect our shared water supply AND lower your utility bill! 💰

Let’s work together to prevent a Drought Emergency. Conservation isn’t just smart—it’s essential.
