Establishes a moratorium on the sale and use of biosolids

Added a new committee reporting step to the legislative history, indicating the bill was reported from committee again with amendments.

Added 12 new sponsors to the bill, expanding the coalition of legislators supporting the legislation.

Expanded the list of exempt materials in the moratorium section to include manure, litter, food processing waste, process wastewater from animal feeding operations, and digestate, allowing these items to be used on land despite the ban on biosolids.

The bill's procedural status changed from being referred to the committee to being discharged, amended, and recommitted after a second report from the committee.

Two new sponsors, Epstein and Schiavoni, were added to the list of legislators introducing the bill.

Four additional legislators (Romero, Gallagher, Rosenthal, Simon, Forrest, Griffin, Otis) were added to the list of bill sponsors.

The definition of 'Biosolids' was updated to include 'liquids' in addition to semi-solids and solids.

A new definition for 'Permit holder' was added to specify farmers or landowners authorized to spread biosolids.

The moratorium on land application was expanded to include compost materials and other products derived from biosolids, not just raw biosolids.

Specific quarterly testing schedules were removed and replaced with a directive for the department to promulgate rules and regulations within one year to establish testing protocols.

Testing requirements were broadened to include drinking water wells within half a mile and surface water within one mile of application sites.

Minor formatting changes were made to the bill title and page numbers to reflect the amended version.
