The Association of Environmental Authorities is a trade association representing publicly owned government agencies and private-sector businesses involved in providing or supporting clean water, wastewater, and solid waste utility services across the state. The non-profit company is based in Mercerville, NJ. It offers resources and services to its members, including educational meetings, legislative and regulatory updates, a directory of authority and municipal utility members, and a document library. The association facilitates collaboration through initiatives such as the New Jersey water utility sector peer-to-peer network, connecting utilities for voluntary sharing of expertise and operational assistance, often in partnership with nonprofit organizations and state agencies. It also provides an online bill payment service and supports member authorities in complying with public information requirements. The association serves as a central hub for advocacy, information dissemination, and networking among environmental authorities and related service providers.
