Backflow Testing, Certification & Repair in West Milford Township, NJ
West Milford Township is Passaic County’s largest municipality by land area — a sprawling township of approximately 25,000 residents covering more than 78 square miles in the county’s northern Highlands region, encompassing an extraordinary collection of lakes, reservoirs, preserved forests, and the remote natural landscapes that make the northern Highlands one of the most ecologically significant and scenic areas in New Jersey. West Milford is home to dozens of lake communities — including Greenwood Lake (shared with New York State), Pinecliff Lake, Upper Greenwood Lake, Belcher Lake, and many others — that have made the township a beloved destination for lake house living within reasonable distance of the New York metropolitan area. The township is also home to portions of the Wanaque Reservoir watershed and the extraordinary Highlands landscape that connects to the Appalachian Trail corridor.

Water Authority Serving West Milford Township
West Milford Township operates its own municipal water system through the West Milford Township water department — the township’s water department serving the areas with public water infrastructure. The West Milford water department enforces cross-connection control requirements under N.J.A.C. 7:14B backflow regulations for properties on the public supply. The township is very large and many areas, particularly the more remote lake communities, rely on private well systems. Annual test reports must be submitted to the West Milford water department for public-supply properties. South Jersey Backflow determines the applicable water supply situation for each West Milford property. contact South Jersey Backflow for a property-specific consultation.

West Milford’s Greenwood Lake communities have dock water connections, boat wash systems, and lakeside irrigation creating specific cross-connection profiles near this important shared water body. Annual certification for West Milford lake community properties contributes to protecting Greenwood Lake’s water quality.
