Bill Summary
As introduced, clarifies that a utility system providing waste water service must provide a connection to the owner of real property for waste water service when the utility system has an existing gravity sewer line located adjacent to the owner's property, not just where the utility system has an existing gravity sewer line on such property. - Amends TCA Title 7, Chapter 35; Title 7, Chapter 82 and Title 68, Chapter 221.
AI Summary
This bill amends Tennessee law to clarify that a utility system providing wastewater service must offer a connection to a property owner if the utility has an existing gravity sewer line located *on or adjacent to* the owner's property, rather than solely requiring the line to be *on* the property itself. This change expands the circumstances under which property owners can request and receive wastewater service from adjacent sewer lines, potentially improving access to essential services for more residents.
