Allows DEP to authorize reformation assessment of certain water and wastewater treatment and conveyance systems.

Summary

The bill lets the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) hire neutral experts to evaluate public water or wastewater systems that are in serious trouble. Municipal owners could then lease or sell those assets to qualified private or public entities without a public referendum.
