Generally revise water quality standards

LC 3522, titled "Generally revise water quality standards," was a bill intended to update state regulations governing clean water levels in rivers, lakes, and coastal areas. It would have directly affected water quality regulators, industrial facilities, and wastewater treatment plants by changing the specific pollution limits they must meet. The bill's key mechanism involved revising numerical thresholds for contaminants like nutrients and chemicals to align with updated scientific research. However, the bill died in process on May 23, 2025, and never became law, so no policy changes were implemented.
