2026 Jersey Water Works Conference

Jersey Water Works (JWW) members believe that smart infrastructure builds strong communities, and share one overarching vision: to transform New Jersey’s water infrastructure. Counting on 600 members and a network of over 3,000 individuals, JWW members know that only through collaboration can this vision be achieved.

Experience the 2026 JWW Conference— a full-day, in-person gathering where transformative partnerships and collaborative ideas take center stage!

This year’s theme: Driving the Change: Shared Action for New Jersey's Water Future

Driving the Change: Establishes an urgent, results-driven call to action. It targets New Jersey’s 2026 pivotal inflection point as the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) comes to an end and strict compliance are in place —especially as the state tackles aggressive timelines for lead service line replacements, newly launched PFAS regulations, and aging Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs).

Shared Action: Anchors the theme to the fundamental mission of the Jersey Water Works collaborative. It explicitly focuses on asset management and finance, advocating for resilient infrastructure upgrades, scaling up water affordability programs, and ensuring we don't leave any communities behind.

Agenda: The Jersey Water Works conference will offer 16 sessions similar to last year’s conference. Stay tuned for more information.

Continuing Education Credits: The Jersey Water Conference offers the following professional continuing education units. Note that some credit-approved sessions may run concurrently during the Conference. Stay tuned for more information.
