Requires boil water notices to be provided by certain public water systems via telephone, email or text message.
This bill requires New Jersey public water systems to notify affected customers about boil water notices within 24 hours of an emergency. Starting 90 days after enactment, systems must use customers' preferred contact methods (like phone, email, or text) instead of relying solely on traditional notices, and must include specific details: the affected area, date of the issue, required safety steps, and a contact number. Systems must also post notices on their public websites and provide similar updates when the notice ends. This applies to all public water systems except transient noncommunity systems serving temporary populations.
