The Borough of Seaside Park, located on the Barnegat Barrier Island in Ocean County, New Jersey, was incorporated in 1898. Seaside Park is a small town of only 0.77 square miles with a year-round population of just over 2,200 residents. With almost two miles of shoreline on the Atlantic Ocean, the borough’s main industry is summer tourism. Seaside Park is bordered on the north by the Borough of Seaside Heights and its amusement arcades, rides and boardwalk. To the south is South Seaside Park, which is an unincorporated section of Berkeley Township, and Island Beach State Park.
Seaside Park is located across the Barnegat Bay from Toms River, the county seat of Ocean County. It is easily reached by Route 37 from the west (Garden State Parkway exit 82 or Route 70 to Route 37 east) or Route 35 from the north (Garden State Parkway exit 98, Route 34 east to Route 35 south).

In July 2021, P.L.2021, Ch.183 (Law) was enacted, requiring lead and galvanized service lines in their service area within 10 years to be replaced. Under the law, the Borough of Seaside Park is required to inventory public and private water services to identify all service line materials. The Borough’s water service line inventory is available at www.seasideparknj.org on the Water & Sewer Operations and Repairs Page.

In an effort to report all private water service line materials to the State of New Jersey, the Borough of Seaside Park is requesting you, the Homeowner, to inspect your current water service and determine the material that has been installed for your property. In the link below this post, you will find pictures of the following water service materials:

- Polyethylene (Plastic) Water Service
- Galvanized Water Service
- Lead Water Service
The Borough of Seaside Park is requesting that you complete a survey to help determine the material type of the private water service line at the property lot and block as identified on the mailing envelope. The survey can be completed by either using the provided QR Code (online https://arcg.is/1XLi0H0) or by returning the survey linked below to the Borough Hall, 1701 N.
