About Us

 The Water Plant – Located in picturesque Pike County PA.

Since 1875 the springs on the plant property have been the source of water serving the Borough of Milford and parts of Milford, Dingman and Westfall Townships. The modern water treatment plant built in 1999 provides great tasting water and exceptional value to some 800 water users connected to our pipe network.  Before 1999, the Milford Water Authority delivered water to the Town of Milford through two open reservoirs fed by a total of sixteen springs.  The reservoirs could hold a total of 575,000 gallons of water in storage.

It is the Mission of the Board of Directors of the Authority:

-To ensure that the entire population of Milford Borough as well as existing and future customers in other communities serviced by the Authority have access to a pure, wholesome and affordable supply of potable water, accomplishing this by operating and maintaining the source water, plant and distribution system in a proactive manner and managing the cost associated with exceptional water quality delivery;

-To protect the Authority’s water source, the Milford Aquifer, by working with the municipalities that the aquifer sits on to ensure that any development is consistent with protecting the fragile ecosystem of the aquifer and by prudently securing available lands in the aquifer where economically feasible to insure long term viability of this water source;

-To work in conjunction with Milford Borough and adjacent municipalities to implement and maintain centralized sewage facilities in accordance with their legislation, our charter and DEP approvals.
