Residuals Data

Residuals Monitoring Report Forms

You may access Monitoring Report Forms (MRFs) data for residual generators through the Department’s DataMiner website under NJPDES Permitting. There you will find a number of useful reports including “Residuals (SQAR) DMR Data by NJPDES Number.” Further instructions are provided below the link to the report.

If you have any questions please call the Bureau of Ground Water, Residuals, and Permit Administration at (609) 984-4428 or email dwq_residuals@njdepwptest.net.

Sewage Sludge Production by Management Mode

These files list modes of sewage sludge management reported by domestic treatment plants in New Jersey. Both statewide summary and individual municipality information are presented for each year. See list below.

Historic Sewage Sludge Quality

This table charts historic, median, statewide sewage sludge quality for selected pollutants. For determining median concentrations, if analytical testing did not yield a pollutant concentration above the minimum detection level, the pollutant concentration is assumed to be the minimum amount of pollutant that could be measured. Equating undetected data points to their minimum detection level is a conservative assumption since it tends to overestimate pollutant concentrations.
