HB 2568 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to a compliance agreement for the suspension of an enforcement action against a regional water supply, sewer, wastewater treatment, or solid waste disposal service for certain violations.

HB 2568 creates a process allowing Texas water and waste services to pause enforcement actions during integration into regional systems. It requires the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality to enter written compliance agreements with regional services (like water or wastewater systems) when they're merging operations, temporarily halting enforcement for violations stemming from the integration itself. The agreements must include specific steps to fix the violations. This directly affects municipal, county, or utility services being integrated into larger regional systems. The bill takes effect September 1, 2025.
