Explanation
(This amendment provides funds for the Department of Health to contract with academic experts to conduct a study of the rate of failure of septic systems in the Commonwealth and the extent to which these failures are causing ground or surface water contamination and which pollutants are involved. This is a recommendation of the Joint Subcommittee Studying the Management and Treatment of Wastewater (House Joint Resolution 771)).
