POINT PLEASANT WATER DEPARTMENT is one of 154 community water systems in New Jersey in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 19,600 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 23 entries between 2012 and 2026, all of which EPA lists as closed.
Of the 23, 22 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 Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
