That drip could waste 3,200 gallons a year, New Jersey utility says

New Jersey American Water is encouraging customers to participate in the EPA’s Fix a Leak Week by finding and repairing household leaks to conserve water and reduce bills, especially during the current statewide drought warning. The company highlighted that even minor leaks can waste thousands of gallons annually and provided resources like a leak detection kit, the MyWater portal, and affordability programs to help customers. This initiative aligns with the company’s recent focus on infrastructure investments, customer assistance, and regulatory approvals.
