New Hampshire HB1120 allows local planning boards to regulate water supply in subdivisions of 4 or more units.

New Hampshire HB1120 amends RSA 674:36 to allow local planning boards to request water supply studies for subdivisions of 4 or more units. It also allows boards to set minimum on-lot private well testing requirements and to charge applicants for notifying abutters and administrative costs. These provisions do not apply to community water systems or large groundwater withdrawals regulated under RSA 485 and RSA 485-C. The act takes effect 60 days after passage.
