Text

The General Assembly finds that it is the policy of this State to ensure and encourage the availability of safe potable water for our cities, villages, towns, and rural residents and that it has become increasingly difficult and cost prohibitive for smaller cities, towns, and villages to construct, maintain, or operate, to current standards, water treatment facilities. It is the further finding of the General Assembly that regional treatment facilities capable of supplying several cities, villages, towns, public water districts, public water commissions, and rural water companies with treated water offer a viable economic solution to this concern and it should be the policy of the State to encourage the construction and operation of regional water treatment facilities capable of providing treated, potable water to cities, villages, towns, public water districts, public water commissions, and rural water companies, thereby relieving the burden on those entities and their citizens from constructing and maintaining their own individual treatment facilities.
