Woodland Park Water Co.

The Borough of Woodland Park operates its own water utility serving most of the homes and businesses in the municipality.

Two other water companies, N.J. American Water Co. and the Passaic Valley Water Commission, serve portions of the Borough.

The Department of Water is under the supervision and direction of the operator of the water distribution system.

The Dept. of Public Works maintains the Borough-owned water mains and pumps and reads the water meters. Woodland Park's system utilizes two water tanks working in tandem: a 1-million-gallon tank on Washington Drive and an 800-thousand-gallon tank at Four Seasons At Great Notch.  Both are operated by a sophisticated monitoring system connected directly to the DPW.

By ordinance, the Tax Collector is the Collector of Water Consumer Accounts, who is responsible for the collection of water usage payments.

The two open-air reservoirs on Garret Mountain – the Great Notch Reservoir and the New Street Reservoir – are not part of the Woodland Park Water Co.  Both are owned and operated by the Passaic Valley Water Commission.
