Bill > H280

This bill establishes plumbing code regulations to provide building owners with guidelines for reusing greywater, which is wastewater from sources like showers, sinks, and washing machines, for toilet flushing and subsurface irrigation. It creates two tiers of greywater systems - Tier 1 for single-family residences with less than 400 gallons per day, and Tier 2 for larger residential, commercial, and institutional buildings with up to 3,000 gallons per day. The bill aims to encourage water conservation and reuse, save money, increase the effective water supply, and protect public health and water quality. It outlines requirements for constructing, connecting, and operating greywater systems, and authorizes local boards of health to implement and enforce the regulations.
