JOINT BASE MCGUIRE-DIX-LAKEHURST, N.J. -- Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst’s water systems are registered with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, and the water delivered to JB MDL consumers is certified safe to drink.
The CCR is a federally mandated document summarizing annual drinking water testing results for public water systems registered with the state. Each report includes system information and water monitoring results for biological, organic, inorganic and radioactive substances in the water supply. The report also examines whether these substances exceed federal or state limits on water-quality parameters outlined by the Environmental Protection Agency in the Safe Drinking Water Act and NJDEP Safe Drinking Water Act rules.
The 87th CEG and Pride Industries maintain JB MDL’s water systems. The 87th MDG collects and oversees sample collection for McGuire and Lakehurst drinking water systems, and Pride oversees sample collection for the Dix drinking water system. All drinking water samples are sent to a state-certified laboratory for analysis to ensure the water is safe to drink.
Hard copies are available at the United Communities Housing Office; Joint Base Library; Military and Family Readiness Centers; Bioenvironmental Engineering Office; Civil Engineering Office and the Dix Correctional Facility.
