SB1554

Missouri SB1554 modifies the hydrant inspection program for community water systems.

Missouri SB1554 repeals and replaces section 640.144 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri, mandating community water systems to establish a hydrant inspection program. This program includes scheduled testing of every hydrant, repair or replacement of broken hydrants, a plan to flush every hydrant and dead-end main, and maintenance of inspection and flushing records for six years. The bill also requires the identification of each hydrant location using a geographic information system or an alternative physical mapping system.
