HO HO KUS WATER DEPT is one of 97 community water systems in New Jersey in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, serving 4,060 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 6 entries between 1979 and 2021, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2021.
All 6 are monitoring and reporting requirements — the category that accounts for about four in five of all violations in EPA's national dataset — rather than findings about the water itself. The record involves inorganic chemicals, the Groundwater Rule, and the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
