Please take notice that the Weymouth Township Municipal Utilities will hold a rate hearing on November 19, 2024 at the Belcoville Fire House, Mays Landing, NJ at 7:00 p.m.  The new proposed rates will be $135.42 for water with excess of $2.79 per thousand gallons used.   The new proposed rate will be $259.19 for sewer.  
This increase is due to the sewer flow increase and for professional services for the application for the water replacement project that occurred in 2024. See below:


The Weymouth Township MUA has been approved for a Grant-Loan with the United States Department of Agriculture.  The grant amount is $4,397,000 and the loan amount is $3,187,000 at 2.375 percent interest rate for 40 years.   The loan must be used before the grant money can be received.

The pump station has been having an overload of sewer flows.  This has caused the pumps to run 5 times more than normal resulting in very high sewer flow bills from HTMUA. Please do not put your storm water overflow into the system.  

​The meetings are held on the third Tuesday of every month at the Belcoville Fire House at 7:00 p.m.

All bills must be paid by a check or money order and mailed to Post Office Box 1322, Mays Landing, NJ 08330 or can be dropped off in the drop box located at the Belcoville Fire House. 

Please be aware that the water readings are estimated on the RFP meters.  The MUA is in the process of obtaining a grant to replace the meters in the near future.

Winter Termination Program:

The NJ Department of Community Affairs has implemented a Winter Termination Program to prevent service discontinuation for eligible residential customers receiving residential electric, sewer and water servicefrom a local authority, municipal utility, or rural electric cooperative from November 15th through March 15th. 
Service cannot be disconnected during this period to those residential customers who demonstrate at the time of the intended termination that they are:
  1. Recipients of benefits under the Federal Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) or certified as eligible therefore under standards set by the New Jersey Department of Human Services.
  2. Recipients of Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF).
  3. Recipients of Federal Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
  4. Recipients of Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD).
  5. Recipients of General Assistance (GA) benefits.
  6. Recipients of the Universal Service Fund (USF).
  7. Recipients of the Low-income Household Water Assistance Program.
  8. Recipients of benefits under the Lifeline Credit Program.
  9. Persons unable to pay their utility bills because of circumstances beyond their control. Such circumstances shall include, but shall not be limited to, unemployment, illness, medically related expenses, recent death of an immediate family member, and any other circumstances, which might cause financial hardship.
As part of this program, your agency is required to send a notice to all residential customers about the Winter Termination Program in the billing cycle prior November 15. The notice shall set forth the terms and conditions of the Program. In addition, your agency must send notice about the Program to a residential customer who have started a new service after the billing cycle prior to November 15 at the time the residential customer signs up for service.  
If your agency has a policy that provides that service will not be shut off to any residential customer from November 15 to March 15, your agency does not have to comply with the notice requirement. In such case, your agency must post a notice generally describing the Program on its website. If the policy changes at any time, your agency must comply with the above terms.
If a customer receives electric, water, or wastewater related financial assistance, the customer shall forward all the benefits to their appropriate electric, water, or wastewater vendor.
During the protection period, an electric, water, or wastewater vendor shall not request a security deposit or an addition to an existing security deposit from a customer who is eligible for and seeks the protection of the Winter Termination Program.
All customers in arrears should be referred to DCAid or NJ211 for possible assistance.
If you have any questions about this program, please contact Fidel Ekhelar at fidel.ekhelar@dca.nj.gov. Thank you for the services that you provide to our State’s residents.

Rate Increase:

2024 - There has not been an increase so far as of 8/20/24 but an increase may happen in the third quarter 2024 billing due to increased costs in sewer flows due to excessive rainfall in the spring and due to increased insurance costs as well as preparations filing with the USDA for the USDA grant/loan.

2023 -The water rate is $104.28 per quarter with $2.79 overage per thousand gallons used. The sewer rate is $179.06 per quarter.  These rates will become effective on January 1, 2023.
