New Jersey A3760 mandates the Department of Environmental Protection to set a maximum contaminant level for hexavalent chromium in drinking water.

New Jersey A3760 requires the Department of Environmental Protection to establish a maximum contaminant level for hexavalent chromium in drinking water. The bill sets a limit of 10 parts per billion for hexavalent chromium, with different implementation timelines for public water systems based on their size. The bill also allows for more stringent standards upon recommendation from the Drinking Water Quality Institute. This act does not change the maximum contaminant level for total chromium in drinking water.
