AI Summary

This bill authorizes the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA) to provide sewer services to a specific 3.07-acre parcel of land in Sharon, Massachusetts, located at the intersection of Route One-General Edwards Highway and High Plain Street. The property, currently under contract with Lang's Century Services, can be connected to the sewer system through the town of Walpole, subject to several conditions. These conditions include obtaining all necessary approvals from local and state regulatory bodies, paying an entrance fee, and receiving approval from the MWRA's board of directors after they confirm compliance with existing policies and regulations. The bill limits initial sewage discharge to 10,000 gallons per day, with the potential for additional volume if approved by the Authority. Lang's Century Services will be responsible for covering all costs associated with engineering, design, construction, and sewer tie-in. The bill will take effect immediately upon passage, providing a specific legal pathway for this property to access municipal sewer services that it was not previously eligible to receive.
