AI Summary

This bill amends the Capital Development Board Act to clarify regulations concerning wastewater agencies and state facilities. Specifically, the bill excludes certain municipal wastewater agencies and local government units organized under various sanitary district acts from the previous restrictions on local ordinances regulating state facility remediation. The bill introduces a new provision that explicitly validates and makes enforceable ordinances and regulations from these specified wastewater agencies regarding the use of or connection to their wastewater treatment or collection systems when it comes to the construction, reconstruction, improvement, or installation of state facilities. This means that these specialized water and sanitary districts can now enforce their local regulations on state facilities within their jurisdictions, ensuring that state projects must comply with local wastewater system connection and use requirements. The bill aims to provide clearer guidelines and more local control for these specific types of municipal wastewater agencies when dealing with state facility projects.
