The bill proposes the repeal of the statewide fluoridation program in Arkansas, effectively eliminating the requirement for water systems to maintain a specific fluoride content in their water supply. This repeal is encapsulated in the deletion of Arkansas Code 20-7-136, which previously defined the fluoridation program and outlined the responsibilities of water system operators regarding fluoride levels.

By removing this mandate, the bill aims to give water systems more autonomy in managing their water quality without the obligation to adhere to state-imposed fluoride concentration standards. The legislation reflects a significant shift in public health policy regarding water fluoridation, potentially impacting community health initiatives and local water management practices.
