Requires certification for real estate contracts that the property has a functioning wastewater treatment system or sewer connection, not a cesspool.

This bill amends the Rhode Island Cesspool Act of 2007 to mandate that every contract for the purchase and sale of real estate include a certification that the property has a functioning on-site wastewater treatment system or a sewer connection, rather than a cesspool. The certification must be provided to the purchaser before or at the time of executing the purchase agreement.
