MANCHESTER UTILITIES AUTHORITY is one of 154 community water systems in New Jersey in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 12,000 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 30 entries between 1978 and 1982, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 1982.
All 30 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 and synthetic organic chemicals.
