Wastewater Design Flow Modifications.

Summary

The bill lets wastewater system operators calculate design flows for new homes at 75 gallons per day per bedroom, or a lower rate if the Department of Environmental Quality approves it based on actual usage. It also sets a minimum of 55 gallons per day per bedroom and provides $10,000 for the department to review these calculations. The goal is to match design assumptions with real water use while protecting health and the environment.
