The bill aims to extend the existence and operations of the Alabama Onsite Wastewater Board until October 1, 2025, in accordance with the Alabama Sunset Law. It includes a recommendation from the sunset committee for statutory changes, specifically amending Section 34-21A-4 of the Code of Alabama 1975. The amendment allows the board's organizational meeting, which occurs within 30 days after the annual appointment of new members, to be considered a regular quarterly meeting, replacing the previous requirement that it "shall not" be considered as such.

Additionally, the bill preserves the current code sections related to the board and outlines the meeting requirements, including the need for at least four meetings per year, notice provisions for board members, quorum requirements, and compensation for board members. The act is set to take effect on June 1, 2024.
