What’s in it

This bill relates to the installation and use of composting toilets. The bill allows a building to be served by a composting toilet provided liquid wastewater is not discharged and the system is capable of storing compostable or composted solids for at least two years. If the system produces liquid by-product, the by-product shall be removed by a person licensed to dispose of such material or by an alternative method approved by the department of natural resources. Solid residuals shall be disposed of either by burying the residuals on-site or in a manner and location approved by the department, or disposed of by a person licensed to dispose of waste.
