The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6799, aims to amend the general statutes to establish guidelines for edible riparian buffers along wetlands and watercourses in the state. This initiative is designed to promote environmental health, agricultural sustainability, and food security by providing a framework for the management and use of these buffers.

The bill does not specify any deletions from current law but focuses on the insertion of new legal language that outlines the guidelines for edible riparian buffers. By implementing these guidelines, the bill seeks to enhance the ecological integrity of wetland areas while also supporting local food production and sustainable agricultural practices.
