Summary
The bill prevents the Florida Department of Environmental Protection from issuing or renewing permits for Class B biosolids land‑application sites when a nearby government‑run wastewater plant can treat septage at a higher level. It applies to sites within 30 miles of such a plant that is still operating and has capacity. The rule aims to encourage use of higher‑treatment facilities rather than land spreading of lower‑treated biosolids.
