Summary
The bill removes state control over the land application of biosolids in counties whose 2020 census population is between 13,500 and 13,550, giving those counties—specifically Grundy County—the power to regulate the practice. It changes several sections of the Tennessee Code to carve out this exception. Farmers, waste‑management firms and other users of biosolids in the affected counties would now follow county‑level rules rather than statewide ones.
