California SB466 exempts public water systems from violations of hexavalent chromium standards while implementing approved compliance plans.

California SB466 amends the Health and Safety Code to exempt public water systems from being deemed in violation of the primary drinking water standard for hexavalent chromium while implementing a state board-approved compliance plan. This exemption applies only if the system meets the total chromium maximum contaminant level (MCL) enforceable standard for drinking water in California. The exemption does not affect the state board's or the Attorney General's authority to enforce laws and regulations regarding hexavalent chromium, including approved compliance plans.
