Requires water purveyors to notify municipalities they service regarding water supply and water quality issues.
This bill requires water purveyors (those operating public community water systems) to submit quarterly and annual reports to the municipalities they serve about water supply allocations and quality. The reports must include permit details, water sources, any exceedances of permitted usage, and water quality test results for contaminants like chemicals and radionuclides. If water purveyors exceed their permitted allocation, they must publish a notice in a local newspaper explaining conservation measures and alternatives for additional water rights. Violations of these reporting requirements can result in fines of up to $100,000 for repeated offenses.
