July 19, 2018

New Jersey is considering S2805 (2018 | NJ) that will:

10-cent tax on every 1,000 gallons of water
that’s about $32 per year per household
fund upgrades to water pipelines

How old are New Jersey water pipelines? Hoboken uses pipelines from 1857, 1869 and 1897

The legislative goal: Cleaner water. NJ still has miles of lead water pipes
