SF1154 (Legislative Session 94 (2025-2026))

Subsurface treatment system rules referral to straight-pipe system statutory requirements modifications

AI Generated Summary

The bill S.F. No. 1154 requires the commissioner of the Pollution Control Agency in Minnesota to update the rules for subsurface treatment systems (e.g., septic systems). These updates must include specific references to legal requirements for system inspectors, as outlined in another section of existing state law. The commissioner is allowed to make these rule changes quickly using a special "good cause" exemption, which means the usual process for changing rules can be bypassed to speed up the implementation.
