Solid Waste Disposal G. Wireless Telecommunications Facilities H. Electric Power, Gas and Telecommunications I. Action Plan X. UTILITY SERVICE PLAN ELEMENT A. Introduction The Utility Service Plan Element analyzes the need for and shows the future general location of water supply and distribution facilities, drainage and flood control facilities, sewerage and waste treatment, solid waste disposal and provision for other related utilities, wireless telecommunication facilities, and includes a storm water management plan section as required pursuant to the provisions of N.J.A.C. 7: 14A-25 Municipal Stormwater Regulations. B. Water Supply Plainsboro Township is located within the New Jersey American Water Company franchise area. The long-term availability of water is not seen as a problem because American Water utilizes surface water for 95% of its supply. In 2006, the available water supply for their entire system was at 145 million gallons per day from the D & R Canal, Spruce Run and the Round Valley reservoirs, in addition to at least 140 existing wells located within the franchise area. Two (2) treatment plants are in use by the Company. The first and largest is a 155 million gallon a day facility and the second is a 60 million gallon a day facility, neither of which are located in the Township. The smaller of the two is currently being considered for expansion to 80 million gallons a day. Over the years the American Water Company has shown an interest in securing well sites within the Township near Merrill Lynch, the Princeton Forrestal Village, and other properties in addition to testing water in the man-made lake within the R-350 zone to supplement anticipated surface water volumes.

    SECTION 4: COUNTY PROFILE SECTION 4 COUNTY PROFILE 2016 HMP UPDATE CHANGES For the 2016 HMP update, the County Profile Section contains updated information regarding Mercer County's physical setting, population and demographics and trends, general building stock, land use and trends, and critical facilities. Additionally, future development trends in the county are now included in Section 4. This profile describes the general information of the county (physical setting, population and demographics, general building stock, and land use and population trends) and critical facilities located in Mercer County. In Section 5, specific profile information is presented and analyzed to develop an understanding of the study area, including the economic, structural, and population assets at risk and the particular concerns that may be present related to hazards analyzed (for example, a high percentage of vulnerable persons in an area). 4.1 GENERAL INFORMATION Mercer County is known as New Jersey’s capital county and located in the central part of the State, between New York City and Philadelphia. Ten percent of the entire population of the United States is within 75 miles of Mercer County. The county has 12 municipalities that cover a total area of 226 square miles. According to the 2010 Census, the population of Mercer County was 366,513.
