Billing and account research from public material
Provider-specific research notes are displayed separately from fields that contain only an unavailable-information marker. Read qualifiers in each note and verify current account terms with the provider.
- Rate structure
- Investor-owned regulated metered water and wastewater tariff. New Jersey American Water filed a 2026 rate request with the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities for system investments and changes to purchased-water and purchased-wastewater adjustment clauses; the complete Short Hills residential tier table was not exposed in the reviewed results.
- Residential cost reference
- A New Jersey American Water public-hearing notice gives an example of a customer using 5,793 gallons per month whose bill would move from $83.87 to $93.89 under the referenced rate proposal; this is a system-level example and not guaranteed for every Short Hills account.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- New Jersey American Water may bill water and wastewater-related charges under its regulated tariffs, including purchased-wastewater treatment adjustment clauses. The reviewed results did not establish a universal Short Hills winter-average calculation.
