Bill Summary
CONCERNING WATER QUALITY IN MOBILE HOME PARKS, AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, MAKING AN APPROPRIATION.
AI Summary
This bill aims to address water quality issues in mobile home parks in Colorado. It does the following:
1. Establishes a program within the Water Quality Control Division of the Department of Public Health and Environment to test the finished water quality at mobile home parks across the state, starting with the most high-risk parks by priority and gradually expanding to cover all parks by 2028.
2. Requires the Division to develop a specific sampling and testing plan for each park, which may include testing for compliance with drinking water standards, as well as for water hardness, iron, calcium, and total dissolved solids.
3. Mandates that the Division make the test results publicly available online in multiple languages, and requires the Division to notify the park owners, local health authorities, the Division of Housing, the water supplier, and an environmental justice ombudsperson of any water quality issues identified.
4. Directs the park owners to notify residents of any water quality issues identified, in multiple languages, and to post the notice in common areas of the park.
5. Establishes a process for the Division to require additional testing and to approve or deny remediation plans if a water quality issue is found, with the goal of resolving the issue to ensure the finished water is safe and healthy for residents to drink.
6. Creates a mobile home park water quality grant program to provide funding for remediation efforts.
