Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.
Stronger emergency plans for water systems
Beginning May 6, 2026, every community water system must keep a written emergency response plan for cyber and physical threats. Systems serving 3,300 or more people must have a plan by December 31, 2026; smaller systems by July 1, 2027. Plans must follow state and federal rules. The director makes sure plans are in place and gives technical help to systems completing their plans.
Water emergency plans kept confidential
Beginning May 6, 2026, records about a community water system’s emergency plan and related incident reports are nonpublic. These records are protected and not released under open-records requests. This protects critical infrastructure but limits public access to detailed security information.
