Assembly Bill

No. 1684

Introduced by Assembly Member Maienschein

February 17, 2023

---

An act to amend Section 116280 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to drinking water.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 1684, as introduced, Maienschein. California Safe Drinking Water Act: public water systems: exemptions.

Existing law, the California Safe Drinking Water Act, provides for the operation of public water systems, as defined, and imposes on the State Water Resources Control Board various responsibilities and duties. The act prohibits a person from operating a public water system without a permit from the state board. The act exempts from its provisions a public water system that meets specified conditions, including, but not limited to, a public water system that obtains all of its water from, but is not owned or operated by, a public water system subject to the act.

This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to the provision exempting certain public water systems from the act.
