A 1152 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Prohibits water companies from assessing more than one charge per fire hydrant to fire departments, fire districts, or volunteer fire companies for use of fire hydrants.

This bill prohibits New Jersey water companies from charging fire departments, fire districts, or volunteer fire companies more than one fee per fire hydrant for its use. It amends state law to require the Board of Public Utilities to disallow any billing structure allowing multiple charges per hydrant for these fire organizations. The law ensures these entities are billed only once per hydrant, preventing duplicate fees for the same fire hydrant. The change applies to all water companies regulated by the Board of Public Utilities.
