Speaker, House of Representatives

Sir:

Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the Senate to amendments proposed by the House of Representatives in S.B. No. 606, S.D. 1, H.D. 2, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO RECYCLED WATER,"

having met, and after full and free discussion, has agreed to recommend and does recommend to the respective Houses the final passage of this bill in an amended form.

The purpose of this measure is to promote the use of recycled water by requiring all state and county facilities using potable water irrigation systems to connect to available recycled water service and to appropriate an unspecified amount to carry out the purposes of the Act.

Upon further consideration, your Committee on Conference amended this measure to:

(1) Allow, rather than require all state and county facilities using potable water irrigation systems to connect to available recycled water service;

(2) Delete the appropriation; and

(3) Make the Act effective upon approval.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the managers of your Committee on Conference that is attached to this report, your Committee on Conference is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 606, S.D. 1, H.D. 2, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 606, S.D. 1, H.D. 2, C.D. 1.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:

ON THE PART OF THE HOUSE

ON THE PART OF THE SENATE
