Old Bridge Municipal Utilities Authority

The Old Link MUA obtains drinking water from a combination of its very own groundwater sources, and also from surface drinking water sources of the Middlesex Water Company. Middlesex Water Company obtains the top water from the Delaware and Raritan Canal and also from the Jazz Run and Rounded Valley Reservoirs. The topwater source is usually withdrawn from the channel at an intake and pumping station found in New Brunswick and transported to the Middlesex Plant in Edison for treatment. The completed water is then transferred to Old Link via a network of distribution mains coming from Edison to Aged Bridge Township. The groundwater source is usually obtained from the Old Link MUA's eight (8) wells. The water wells extend underground 100 feet (100') to four hundred feet (400') into two (2) separate groundwater water supplies. The shallower aquifer, located at 100 feet (100') is known as the Old Bridge Aquifer, and the deeper aquifer, located at 400 feet (400') is known as the Farrington Aquifer. The water is driven out of the two (2) aquifers to a treatment plant for associated with contaminants utilizing advanced and reliable treatment practices for the source of water. These types of treatment methods eliminate or perhaps minimize the effects of pollutants, as well as improve cosmetic qualities, such as flavor, odor, and color. After treatment, water is sent into the Old Bridge MUA distribution system. The Bridge MUA gives its customers typically 6. 5 mil gallons per day of safe drinking water. The Old Link MUA produces around 3. 5 mil gallons per day from your treatment vegetation, and purchases around 3. 0 mil gallons per day of treated water coming from Middlesex Water Company. The water coming from Middlesex Water Company and the Aged Bridge MUA water wells are mixed inside the water distribution program. The Old Bridge MUA sells approximately six hundred, 000 gallons each day of water to Aberdeen Township. Besides the interconnection with the Middlesex Water Company and Aberdeen Township, the Old Bridge MUA has interconnections with Perth Amboy and Marlboro Township.
