New Jersey could tax tap water under Democratic lawmaker's plan
State Sen. Bob Smith, a Democrat, suggested adding a “user fee on water consumption and water diversion" in his proposed legislation.
The tax would add 10 cents for every 1,000 gallons of water used in a home, which would amount to an increase of approximately $32 per year to the “average” water bill, Smith told WNYW-TV.
According to the proposal, “much of [New Jersey’s] drinking water infrastructure has aged past its useful life and is in dire need of repair and replacement.”
“There is a big problem, and it is a problem that affects your health, your kids’ health and your grandchildren’s health,” Smith told NJ.com.
