Bill > SB1019

This bill amends existing Arizona law concerning public water systems by adding a new provision that prohibits any person, including government entities, from adding fluoride, which includes any chemical compound containing the fluoride ion like fluorosilicic acid, sodium fluorosilicate, and sodium fluoride, into a public water system or any water intended for introduction into a public water system. This change is made within the section that outlines the duties of the director of environmental quality regarding water quality control and the rules they can prescribe for public water systems, which must comply with federal standards like the Safe Drinking Water Act. The bill also makes minor adjustments to the dollar amounts for project cost exemptions related to revisions of small public water systems and clarifies language regarding lead contamination notices and exemptions.
