The bill amends section 403.0855 of the Florida Statutes to enhance the management of biosolids, specifically bulk Class AA biosolids fertilizer and compost products. It prohibits the land application of these products from exceeding the appropriate agronomic rate, which is defined as the nutrient application rate based on science-based nutrient management principles. The bill also establishes that the primary objective of land application should be beneficial reuse rather than disposal, with specific definitions provided for both "agronomic rate" and "disposal." Additionally, it mandates that owners or operators of land application sites maintain detailed application records for at least five years and make them available to the Department of Environmental Protection upon request.

Furthermore, the bill requires the University of Florida Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences to publish recommended agronomic rates for the reuse of bulk Class AA biosolids on a biennial basis, starting by November 1, 2027. It also stipulates that Class AA biosolids fertilizer and certain compost products cannot be marketed or distributed for agricultural land application unless they meet specified requirements. The bill includes provisions for rulemaking by the Department of Environmental Protection to implement these changes and sets an effective date of November 1, 2026.
