What’s in it

This bill relates to water usage reporting requirements for large water use facilities. The bill defines “large water use facility” as a facility that uses or is able to use 25,000 gallons or more per day and is primarily engaged in the business of providing a service as described under code number 518210 of the North American industry classification system (data processing), ethyl alcohol manufacturing as described under code number 325193 of the North American industry classification system, or cryptocurrency mining. The bill requires each large water use facility to submit an annual report to the department of natural resources by March of each year that includes detailed information on the facility’s water use from the previous year.
