Bill > A04659

This bill amends New York state tax law to create a new sales and use tax exemption for innovative and alternative septic systems that utilize advanced treatment technologies. Specifically, the exemption applies to septic systems with enhanced nitrogen removal capabilities that process up to 1,000 gallons of waste per day and serve a single parcel of land, which can include both residential and small business properties. These systems are designed to reduce environmental and public health impacts associated with human and sanitary waste management. By providing a tax exemption, the bill aims to incentivize the adoption of more environmentally-friendly and technologically advanced wastewater treatment solutions. The tax exemption would help lower the financial barriers for property owners looking to install these advanced septic systems, potentially encouraging more widespread use of more sustainable waste treatment technologies.
