What’s in it

AI summary Campgrounds with water hookups must use septic systems that are large enough to handle their specific number of campsites. The system's capacity must be based on either a set amount of water per site or the campground's highest water usage from the previous year. Campgrounds that do not meter their water must ensure their septic systems are rated for a specific amount of water for every campsite.1

Read the official explanation

This bill requires a minimum septic system use capacity for campgrounds. The environmental protection commission shall require a campground with hookups to have a septic system with a use capacity based on the number of campsites that is rated for the higher of either gallons per day for each camping site using the septic system, or the peak monthly water usage of the septic system for the previous year divided by the number of days in that month and the number of campsites. A campground without a metered water source shall maintain a septic system rated for gallons per day for each campsite.
