The guidance was effective January 1, 2018 and did not have a&#13;material impact on the Company&amp;#8217;s financial statements. Disclosures related to Revenue Recognition are included in Note 9,&#13;&lt;i&gt;Revenue Recognition from Contracts with Customers&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Recognition and Measurement of Financial&#13;Assets and Financial Liabilities &lt;/b&gt;- In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance which (i) requires all investments in equity securities,&#13;including other ownership interests such as partnerships, unincorporated joint ventures and limited liability companies, to be&#13;carried at fair value through net income, (ii) requires an incremental recognition and disclosure requirement related to the presentation&#13;of fair value changes of financial liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected, (iii) amends several disclosure&#13;requirements, including the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value or a description of the changes in&#13;the methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value, and (iv) requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and&#13;liabilities measured at amortized cost at the amount that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability.&#13;The guidance was effective January 1, 2018 and did not have a material impact on the Company&amp;#8217;s financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Statement of Cash Flows - &lt;/b&gt;In August&#13;2016, the FASB issued guidance which amends the previous guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in&#13;the statement of cash flows. The primary purpose of the amendment is to reduce the diversity in practice that has resulted from&#13;the lack of consistent principles on this topic. The guidance was effective January 1, 2018 and did not have a material impact&#13;on the Company&amp;#8217;s financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Restricted Cash - &lt;/b&gt;In November 2016,&#13;the FASB issued guidance related to the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows, which&#13;requires entities to a) include restricted cash balances in its cash and cash-equivalent balances in the statement of cash flows&#13;and b) include a reconciliation of cash and cash-equivalents per the statement of financial position as compared to the statement&#13;of cash flows. Changes in restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents that result from transfers between cash, cash equivalents,&#13;and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents will not be presented as cash flow activities in the statement of cash flows.&#13;In addition, an entity with a material balance of amounts described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents must disclose&#13;information about the nature of the restrictions. The guidance was effective January 1, 2018 and did not have a material impact&#13;on the Company&amp;#8217;s financial statements. As a result of adopting this guidance, the consolidated statement of cash flows for&#13;the six months ended June 30, 2017 was revised, which resulted in a $0.4 million increase in Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted&#13;Cash at the Beginning and End of the Period.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Employee Benefit Plans-Net Periodic Benefit&#13;Cost &amp;#8211; &lt;/b&gt;In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance which requires entities to (1) disaggregate the current-service-cost component&#13;from the other components of net benefit cost and present it with other current compensation costs for related employees in the&#13;income statement and (2) present the other components elsewhere in the income statement and outside of income from operations if&#13;that subtotal is presented. In addition, the guidance requires entities to disclose the income statement lines that contain the&#13;other components if they are not presented on appropriately described separate lines. The guidance was effective January 1, 2018&#13;and did not have a material impact on the Company&amp;#8217;s financial statements. See Note 8, &lt;i&gt;Employee Benefit Plans &lt;/i&gt;for more&#13;information. As a result of adopting this guidance, the consolidated statement of income for the three and six months ended June&#13;30, 2017 was revised, which resulted in increases in Operations and Maintenance expense and Other Income (Expense), net of $0.2&#13;million and $0.4 million, respectively.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Leases - &lt;/b&gt;In February 2016, the&#13;FASB issued guidance related to leases which will require lessees to recognize a lease liability (a lessee&amp;#8217;s obligation&#13;to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis) and a right-of-use asset (an asset that&#13;represents the lessee&amp;#8217;s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term). In January 2018,&#13;the FASB issued additional guidance related to leases which permits entities to forgo the evaluation of existing land&#13;easement arrangements to determine if they contain a lease as part of the adoption of this guidance.

In its initial October&#13;2017 filing with the NJBPU, Middlesex had sought an increase of $15.3 million to recover costs for capital infrastructure investments&#13;Middlesex has made, or has committed to make, to drinking water infrastructure since the last filing in New Jersey in 2015 as well&#13;as increased operations and maintenance costs. During the pendency of this rate matter, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the&#13;Tax Act) was signed into law. Under the Tax Act the maximum corporate income tax rate was reduced from 35% to 21% effective January&#13;1, 2018. Because income tax is one of the cost components used to determine a regulated utility&amp;#8217;s revenue requirement, Middlesex&#13;was able to reduce its original rate increase request by $4.9 million to $10.4 million. The new base water rates are designed to&#13;recover the increased operating costs as well as a return on invested capital in rate base of $245.5 million, based on an authorized&#13;return on equity of 9.6%. As part of the settlement, Middlesex received approval for regulatory accounting treatment of accumulated&#13;deferred income tax benefits associated with required adoption of tangible property regulations issued by the Internal Revenue&#13;Service (IRS). The settlement agreement allowed for a four-year amortization period for $28.7 million of deferred income tax benefits&#13;as well as immediate and prospective recognition of the tangible property regulations tax benefits in future years. The rate increase&#13;became effective April 1, 2018.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Tidewater - &lt;/b&gt;Effective July 1, 2018,&#13;Tidewater revised its Delaware Public Service Commission (DEPSC)-approved Distribution System Improvement Charge (DSIC) rate, which&#13;is expected to generate $0.2 million of revenues in 2018. A DSIC is a rate-mechanism that allows water utilities to recover investments&#13;in, and generate a return on, qualifying capital improvements to their water distribution system made between base rate proceedings.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Tax Act - &lt;/b&gt;On December 22, 2017, the&#13;Tax Act was signed into law making significant changes to the Internal Revenue Code, including a corporate tax rate decrease from&amp;#160;35%&amp;#160;to&amp;#160;21%&amp;#160;effective&#13;for tax years beginning after&amp;#160;December&amp;#160;31, 2017.

These regulatory liabilities are overwhelmingly related to accelerated tax depreciation deduction timing differences,&#13;which are subject to IRS normalization rules. The IRS rules limit how quickly the excess taxes attributable to accelerated tax&#13;depreciation can be returned to customers.&lt;/p&gt;</us-gaap:PublicUtilitiesDisclosureTextBlock>

This segment also includes regulated&#13;wastewater systems in New Jersey and Delaware.&amp;#160;The Company is subject to regulations as to its rates, services and other matters&#13;by New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania with respect to utility services within these states. The other segment is primarily comprised&#13;of non-regulated contract services for the operation and maintenance of municipal and private water and wastewater systems in New&#13;Jersey and Delaware.&amp;#160;Inter-segment transactions relating to operational costs are treated as pass-through expenses. Finance&#13;charges on inter-segment loan activities are based on interest rates that are below what would normally be charged by a third party&#13;lender.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;

(AWM), an unaffiliated wastewater treatment contractor, to operate a County-owned leachate pretreatment facility at the Monmouth&#13;County Reclamation Center in Tinton Falls, New Jersey. The performance guaranty is effective through 2028 unless another guarantor,&#13;acceptable to the County, replaces Middlesex before such date. Under agreements with AWM and Natural Systems Utilities, LLC (NSU),&#13;the parent company of AWM, Middlesex earns a fee for providing the performance guaranty. In addition, Middlesex may provide operational&#13;support to the facility, as needed, and AWM and NSU, serving as guarantor to Middlesex with respect to the performance of AWM,&#13;agree to indemnify Middlesex against any claims that may arise under the Middlesex guaranty to the County.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; background-color: white"&gt;If requested to perform&#13;under the guaranty to the County and, if AWM and NSU, as guarantor to Middlesex, do not fulfill their obligations to indemnify&#13;Middlesex against any claims that may arise under the Middlesex guaranty to the County, Middlesex would be required to fulfill&#13;the remaining operational commitment of AWM.

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control&#13;of a promised good or service is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects&#13;to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The Company&amp;#8217;s regulated revenue from&#13;contracts with customers is derived from tariff-based sales that result from the obligation to provide water and wastewater services&#13;to residential, industrial, commercial, fire-protection and wholesale customers. The Company&amp;#8217;s residential customers are&#13;billed quarterly while most of the Company&amp;#8217;s industrial, commercial, fire-protection and wholesale customers are billed monthly.&#13;Payments by customers are due between 15 to 30 days after the invoice date. The Company recognizes revenue as the water and wastewater&#13;services are delivered to customers as well as records unbilled revenues estimated from the last meter reading date to the end&#13;of the accounting period utilizing factors such as historical customer data, regional weather indicators and general economic conditions&#13;in its service territories. Unearned Revenues and Advance Service Fees include fixed service charge billings in advance to Tidewater&#13;customers that are recognized as service is provided to the customer.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 146.25pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;Non-regulated service contract revenues consist&#13;of base service fees as well as fees for additional billable services provided to customers, are billed monthly and are due within&#13;30 days after the invoice date. The Company considers the amounts billed to represent the value of these services provided to customers.&#13;These contracts expire between December 2018 and 2022 and thus contain remaining performance obligations for which the Company&#13;expects to recognize revenue in the future. These contracts also contain customary termination provisions.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;Almost all of the amounts included in operating&#13;revenues and accounts receivable are from contracts with customers.

The adoption resulted in a net reduction of $17.6 million in taxes previously remitted to&#13;the IRS, for which the Company has already sought and received the tax refunds. While the Company believes that its treatment of&#13;qualifying tangible property repair costs is proper, a reserve provision against refunded taxes of $2.3 million was recorded in&#13;2015 at the time of filing its change in accounting method. This was based on a possible challenge by the IRS during an audit examination.&#13;The Company&amp;#8217;s 2014 federal income tax return was subsequently selected for examination by the IRS in 2016. During the second&#13;quarter of 2018, the Company received information from the IRS regarding certain aspects of the its adopted accounting method used&#13;to calculate qualifying tangible property repair cost deductions and has determined that it should increase its reserve provision&#13;to $3.7 million. As the IRS examination continues and pending its completion, the tax liability could be different than the recorded&#13;reserve provision. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company has recorded $0.4 million in interest expense&#13;due to this reserve provision.&lt;/p&gt;</us-gaap:IncomeTaxDisclosureTextBlock>
