Residents of Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst face brown water from old pipes, prompting fixes and health advisories.
Residents of military housing at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst in New Jersey are dealing with brown water, attributed to sediment in aging pipes.
The base oversees water quality and the water plant, while United Communities manages housing-area water mains.
A new water line is being installed to improve flow and reduce sediment buildup, with work starting soon and expected completion by late winter.
Residents are advised to run cold water until the issue clears and avoid hot water to prevent sediment from entering heaters, with maintenance support available.
Though the base’s water met federal standards in 2024, independent tests found contaminants above EPA limits, prompting filter recommendations.
Officials say the upgrades are part of a long-term fix for reliable water access.
