This bill mandates that the owner or operator of a public water system must promptly notify the governing body of a municipality and the chief administrator of every school district, charter school, and nonpublic school within that municipality whenever there is a violation of drinking water quality standards. The notification must be made via telephone and electronic mail and must include detailed information about the contaminant that exceeds the standard, including its name, the maximum contaminant level or action level, the level found on specific dates, the dates of testing, and the locations of the samples tested. Additionally, the bill requires the water supplier to provide suggested remedies for customers to address the violation.

The bill aims to enhance public health and safety by ensuring that relevant authorities are informed of drinking water quality issues in a timely manner, allowing for swift action to protect the community. It is designed to supplement existing laws regarding drinking water quality standards and is set to take effect immediately upon enactment.
