Summary
Maximum contaminant levels for pollutants in water. Requires the state department of health (state department) to establish state maximum contaminant levels for likely or known carcinogens and toxic chemicals likely to pose a substantial health hazard. Requires the state department to establish maximum contaminant levels for PFAS, chromium-6, and 1,4-dioxane in water provided by public water systems. Requires the state department to consider establishing maximum contaminant levels in water provided by public water systems for another pollutant when two or more other states have set limits or issued guidance concerning that pollutant.
