This bill mandates that public water supplies and publicly owned treatment works in Minnesota submit an annual "water access report" to the appropriate agency by March 1 each year. The report must detail the utility's policies regarding late payments, service termination, payment plans, alternative rate structures, and local ordinances affecting these policies. Additionally, it requires specific data on account management, including the total number of accounts, those terminated for nonpayment, and a breakdown of terminations by month and type of bill. The report must also include contact information for customer assistance, financial statements, and any explanations for missing information.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that the appropriate agency is responsible for posting the received water access reports on its website, ensuring transparency and accessibility of this information to the public. It also requires that any individual with relevant information must provide it to the reporting water utility upon request, thereby facilitating the accurate compilation of the required data.
