Bill > SB00254

This bill aims to modify existing state statutes by requiring that water quality test results for private residential wells and semipublic wells be made publicly accessible when those test results are submitted to a local health authority. Specifically, the bill would mandate transparency around water quality testing, allowing members of the public to view and access the results of water quality tests for these types of wells. This could help residents and communities better understand the water quality in their local area, potentially enabling them to make more informed decisions about water safety and potential health risks. The bill does not specify the exact mechanism for making these test results accessible, but implies that local health authorities would be responsible for ensuring public access to the information. By mandating public disclosure, the legislation seeks to increase transparency and awareness around water quality testing for private and semipublic wells.
