MADISON WATER DEPT is one of 154 community water systems in New Jersey in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 15,820 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 10 entries between 2004 and 2025, of which 1 remains open; none are health-based.
Of the 10, 8 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 the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, the Groundwater Rule, and the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
