MOUNT LAUREL TOWNSHIP MUNICIPAL UTILITIES AUTHORITY

What MOUNT LAUREL TOWNSHIP MUNICIPAL UTILITIES AUTHORITY does

Mount Laurel Township Municipal Utilities Authority (MLTMUA) is a public municipal utilities authority established in 1965 by Mount Laurel Township, New Jersey, to provide potable water and wastewater services within the Township's regulatory service territory. MLTMUA operates as a regulated monopoly serving approximately 18,000 residential, commercial, industrial, multi-family, municipal, and school customers, funded entirely by service revenues rather than municipal or state taxes. The Authority is governed by a five-member Board of Directors appointed by Township Council, with daily operations run by an Executive Director alongside a Chief Administrative Officer and Superintendent of Operations.

The Authority's physical footprint is substantial: 237 miles of water distribution main, 189 miles of sewer main (41 miles pressurized, 148 miles gravity), 41 sanitary sewer pump stations, 1,874 fire hydrants, 5,015 water valves, 4,152 manholes, and multiple storage facilities totaling 3.5 million gallons. Water is sourced from four wells feeding the Elbo Lane Groundwater Treatment Plant (5.3 MGD peak treatment capacity, with iron/manganese removal and fluoride addition), supplemented by an Aquifer Storage and Recovery well (~200 MG storage, 1.3 MGD recharge, 3 MGD withdrawal) and five bulk plus eight stand-by interconnections with neighboring utilities (Willingboro MUA, Evesham MUA, NJ American Water, Moorestown Township, Maple Shade Township). Wastewater is treated at the Hartford Road Water Pollution Control Facility, which provides advanced secondary treatment at an average 6.0 MGD and discharges to the Mainstem Rancocas Creek. An on-site laboratory is certified by both the US EPA and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, and 21 staff hold NJDEP operator licenses maintained through annual continuing education. The Authority also operates the Ramblewood Solar Facility for renewable energy and supports an extensive water-quality public-information program covering PFAS and other contaminants.

MLTMUA's revenue model is predominantly usage-based: monthly water and sewer bills are calculated per 1,000 gallons of consumption with separate customer charges based on meter size, differentiated by customer class (residential, commercial, industrial, apartment, municipal/school), and supplemented by one-time connection fees and ancillary charges (irrigation, fire service, permits, 1.5% monthly late-payment interest, 50% senior/disabled sewer discount). Capital projects are financed through the NJ Water Bank, a state low-interest infrastructure program that has funded multiple ongoing upgrades. Customer engagement spans an Edmunds Govtech WIPP online payment portal, Adobe Sign-enabled e-billing, ACH direct debit, Civic Ready and Nixle emergency notifications, hybrid monthly Board meetings with published agendas/minutes, and public-education facility tours. Geography is constrained to Mount Laurel Township, with the southwest section served by NJ American Water rather than MLTMUA.
