New Jersey American Water today announced that it invested more than $781 million in water and wastewater system improvements across the Garden State in 2025 – a significant increase from the approximately $520 million invested in 2024. This year-over-year growth reflects the company’s commitment to delivering safe, clean, reliable and affordable water service to more than 190 communities across New Jersey, while proactively upgrading the systems customers depend on every day.

“Our $781 million investment isn’t just a number, it’s about staying ahead of aging infrastructure, so our customers don’t have to think twice about the water coming from their tap,” said Mark McDonough, president of New Jersey American Water. “Even as we modernize and expand our footprint, we continue to upgrade pipes, treatment technology and service lines all while keeping water about a penny per gallon and bills well under one percent of median household income.”

McDonough added that in addition to helping the company continue to provide safe, clean, reliable service for customers, this level of investment contributed to more than 12,490 jobs statewide.
