An Act to eliminate combined sewer overflows in Massachusetts waterways

HD 2388 requires municipalities and private entities operating combined sewer systems to eliminate all sewage overflows into Massachusetts waterways by December 31, 2050. The bill mandates the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA) to establish annual reduction targets and reporting requirements for these entities within six months of the law's effective date. The EEA must also annually report progress, compliance status, and implementation barriers to the state legislature and public. This law directly affects all entities managing combined sewer systems discharging into Massachusetts waterways, with specific deadlines and oversight mechanisms.
