Bill > H808

This bill requires water suppliers in Massachusetts to annually report summaries of their emergency response plans to the municipalities they serve and the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), while allowing them to withhold sensitive or proprietary information. It also mandates that water suppliers provide municipalities with copies of statistical reports and consumer confidence reports submitted to the DEP. Additionally, the bill directs the DEP to promulgate regulations requiring water suppliers to provide financial relief to customers who experienced water outages longer than 48 hours in the previous year, with a pro-rated formula for different customer types and reporting requirements for suppliers.
