S.B. No. 1662 amends the Health and Safety Code by adding a new section, 341.0317, which establishes a requirement for the Texas commission to provide advance notice of water quality testing to certain public drinking water supply systems. Specifically, the bill allows the commission to notify these systems, which source their water from underground, no more than 24 hours prior to conducting tests aimed at investigating complaints regarding water quality.

The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025, following its passage in both the Senate and the House with overwhelming support. This legislative change aims to enhance communication between the commission and public drinking water systems, ensuring that they are informed before testing occurs, which may help in addressing any concerns related to water quality more effectively.
