HAWTHORNE WATER DEPARTMENT is one of 154 community water systems in New Jersey in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 19,458 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 17 entries between 2000 and 2024, all of which EPA lists as closed.

Of the 17, 10 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 Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule, and the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule.
