Summary

Under current law, a board of county commissioners or governing
body of a municipality (local government) may authorize the use of
graywater within its jurisdiction. Graywater refers to certain types of
wastewater that is collected from fixtures before it is treated and put to
certain beneficial uses.
The bill authorizes the installation of graywater treatment works
and the use of graywater statewide; except that a local government:
  • May adopt an ordinance or a resolution prohibiting the
installation of graywater treatment works or the use of all
graywater or categories of graywater use within its
jurisdiction; and
  • Shall notify the division of administration in the
department of public health and environment of any such
local ordinance or resolution adopted.
To incentivize the installation of graywater treatment works within
a residential building for indoor water reuse, the bill also creates a state
income tax credit that allows a taxpayer to claim a credit up to 50% of the
cost of such an installation or up to $5,000, whichever amount is less.
