Bill Summary

AN ACT concerning water; relating to public water systems; prohibiting the use of fluoride additives in such systems; amending K.S.A. 19- 3521a, 65-162a and 65-171m and K.S.A. 2025 Supp. 65-171r and repealing the existing sections.

AI Summary

This bill prohibits the addition of fluoride to public water supplies in Kansas, by removing provisions that previously allowed for fluoridation after certain public notice and voting procedures, and by adding a definition for "water quality additive" which would exclude fluoride from being added to public water systems. The bill also amends existing laws to reflect this change, specifically concerning the powers of the Secretary of Health and Environment regarding water quality standards and prohibiting the use of any additive not defined as a "water quality additive."
