SUMMARY AS PASSED SENATE: (all summaries)

Permit for coal ash landfill storage; provision of public water supply. Prohibits the Department of Environmental Quality from approving an application for a new coal ash landfill permit if the facility boundary is located within one mile of an existing residential area that is not served by municipal water supply, unless the owner or operator of the coal ash landfill has offered to provide, at its expense, (i) municipal water supply service for such residential area and (ii) any requested service connections for residential properties in existence at the time such permit application is filed. The bill requires any such owner or operator of a coal ash landfill offering to provide such municipal water supply service or requested service connections to make such offer in writing to any resident located within one mile of the facility boundary and in coordination with the municipal water supply service authority in which the coal ash landfill will be located.
