Summary
In an effort to reduce the pollution of surface and groundwater from individual septic systems, this bill would help identify malfunctioning and high-polluting individual septic systems and improve the overall functioning of rural septic systems throughout New York State. This bill would create a New York State Tax Deduction for homeowners for their primary or secondary residence, for septic system upgrades, repairs or replacements. The bill would also create a revolving loan fund for existing homeowners who require improvements to their septic systems but who do not have available financial resources to make the improvements. Finally, the bill would provide incentives for towns and villages to adopt a local septic system ordinance.
Title
An act to amend the tax law, the environmental conservation law and the state finance law, in relation to establishing the rural freshwater improvement and protection program
