This bill requires a person who proposes to bottle water, using more than 25 percent of the water produced by a local governmental unit, such as a municipal water district, to obtain approval from the Department of Natural Resources (DNR).
The bill prohibits DNR from providing its approval unless it determines that the bottling of the water will not impair the ability of the local governmental unit to furnish water to the public and will not have a significant adverse environmental impact.
