House Bill 898 amends Tennessee law regarding the regulation of fluoride in water by introducing a new requirement for utility systems. Specifically, it mandates that each utility system must obtain a certificate of analysis for any water sold that contains fluoride. Additionally, the bill requires that both the certificate of analysis and the material safety data sheet for fluoride be made accessible on the utility system's website, or on the board of utility regulation's website if the utility system lacks its own website.

The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, emphasizing the importance of transparency and safety in the management of fluoride levels in public water supplies. This legislative change aims to ensure that consumers have access to critical information regarding the fluoride content in their drinking water.
