MAHWAH WATER DEPARTMENT is one of 154 community water systems in New Jersey in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 26,777 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 11 entries between 2015 and 2023, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2023.

All 11 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 volatile organic chemicals, the Lead and Copper Rule, and inorganic chemicals.

It lists the contaminants detected in the system’s water during the year, where the water comes from, and how the results compare with federal limits. EPA’s revised CCR rule takes effect January 1, 2027, and the first reports in the new format are due July 1, 2027.
