NJ Lead and Copper Rule Data
Description
Development of a data management solution for new regulatory data and information that Water Systems will be required to submit as a results of the NJ Lead and Copper Rule
Problem Statement
None
Project Justification
DWSG will be proposing a NJ specific Lead and Copper Rule. The proposed modifications to the rule will require significant additional tracking of submittal requirements and significant data re-calculation and entry which greatly increases the burden on states. The current version of SDWIS/State and the State Electronic Reporting System (E2) does not have the functionality to manage several new requirements in the proposed rule and will need to be upgraded prior to the proposed rule becoming effective. The Department will need to invest in developing the appropriate electronic tools to receive, process, and run compliance on all the additional requirements.

Target Rollout Date
1 January 2024
Target Rollout Date Reason
Estimating a final due date is difficult because this has been a moving target. DEP must work with EPA on this + the NJ Legislature and both keep shifting and updating the rule. So the system can't be fully designed until a rule is officially adopted.

Chris Adair provided this update: “The rule is currently under review with DOL. It got split up into 4 chunks and 3 of those 4 have made their way back to us. Unsure of the time table at the moment, there was a rush to try to get it down back in the fall, but that didn’t happen and with the release of LCRI by EPA we have to make sure we are at least as stringent as they are.”
