What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Natural Resources issues WPDES

(water pollutant discharge elimination system) permits and stormwater discharge

permits. This bill requires a person who, as part of the person's activities under such

a permit, creates a retention pond to install and maintain a fence around the

perimeter of the retention pond and install signage that identifies the presence of the

retention pond and warns of the dangers of entering the pond.
