Prohibits adding non-contamination chemicals to public water systems and sets safety standards if federal law allows medication dispensing through.
This bill prohibits state or county laws from requiring the addition of non-contamination chemicals to public water systems. It mandates quality control and public safety requirements if the federal Safe Drinking Water Act is amended to allow states to dispense medication through water systems. The bill requires an independent environmental assessment to evaluate the regulation's cost-effectiveness, safer alternatives, wastewater discharge effects, potential harm to reef and marine life, impact on agriculture, and bio-accumulative buildup in humans.
