H.B. No. 3142

AN ACT
relating to Texas Commission on Environmental Quality reminders to
public drinking water supply systems regarding reporting
requirements.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
SECTION 1. Section 341.0315, Health and Safety Code, is
amended by adding Subsection (e) to read as follows:
(e) The commission shall establish a system to provide
automatic reminders to public drinking water supply systems about
regular reporting requirements applicable to the systems under the
federal Safe Drinking Water Act (42 U.S.C. Section 300f et seq.) and
this chapter that relate to commission rules adopted under those
laws. An automatic reminder provided under this subsection is a
