CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE 20172018 REGULAR SESSION Senate Bill No. 427Introduced by Senator LeyvaFebruary 15, 2017 An act to amend Section 116885 of, and to add Section 116890 to, the Health and Safety Code, relating to drinking water. LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGESTSB 427, as introduced, Leyva. Public water systems: lead user service lines.(1) Existing law prohibits the use of any pipe, pipe or plumbing fitting or fixture, solder, or flux that is not lead free in the installation or repair of any public water system or any plumbing in a facility providing water for human consumption, except as specified.Existing law requires, by July 1, 2018, a public water system to compile an inventory of known lead user service lines in use in its distribution system and identify areas that may have lead user service lines in use in its distribution system. Existing law requires the public water system, after completing the inventory, to provide a timeline for replacement of known lead user service lines in the distribution system to the State Water Resources Control Board. Existing law requires, by July 1, 2020, a public water system with areas that may have lead user service lines in use in its distribution system to either determine the existence or absence of lead user service lines in these areas and provide that information to the state board or provide a timeline for replacement of the user service lines whose content cannot be determined.This bill, by July 1, 2020, would require a public water system to provide the timeline for replacement of known lead user service lines in use in its distribution system to the state board. The bill, by July 1, 2020, would require a public water system that has identified areas that may have lead user service lines in use in its distribution system to (a) provide to the state board its determination as to whether there are any lead user service lines in use in those areas of its distribution system and provide a timeline to the state board for replacement of those lead use service lines, and (b) provide findings as to whether there are any areas for which it cannot determine the content of the user service lines and a timeline for the replacement of those user service lines.(2) Existing law requires the state board to either approve a proposed replacement timeline or deny and propose a revised replacement timeline to the public water system, as specified. If the public water system rejects the state boards revised timeline, existing law requires the public water system and the state board to develop a compromise timeline within 30 days.This bill, if a compromise timeline is not developed within 30 days, would require the public water system to comply with the state boards revised timeline. The bill would authorize the state board to amend its revised timeline by incorporating elements of the public water systems proposed timeline.(3) Existing law, the California Safe Drinking Water Act, imposes on the state board various responsibilities and duties relating to providing a dependable, safe supply of drinking water. The act prohibits a person from operating a public water system without a permit and requires any person who owns a public water system to ensure that the system, among other things, provides a reliable and adequate supply of pure, wholesome, healthful, and potable water. Existing law authorizes the state board to issue an order, as specified, whenever the state board determines a person has violated or is violating the act. The act provides that a person who knowingly makes a false statement or representation in a report submitted, maintained, or used for purposes of compliance with the act or who violates an order issued by the state board pursuant to the act that has a substantial probability of presenting an imminent danger to the health of persons may be punished as a misdemeanor.This bill would specifically authorize the state board to apply and enforce these provisions relating to lead user service lines in public water systems under the California Safe Drinking Water Act and would make a violation of a provision in (1) or (2) a violation for purposes of the act. Because a misstatement in the above-described compiled inventory would be a crime, and a violation of an order issued by the state board relating to the use of any pipe, pipe or plumbing fitting or fixture, solder, or flux that is not lead free, as specified, would be a crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program by expanding the scope of a crime. (4) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: YES Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1.

The state board shall explain to the public water system, in writing, why the public water systems timeline was not approved, the factors that the state board used to propose a revised timeline, and why the state board used those factors.(2) If the state board fails to act within 30 days of the submission of the timeline, the timeline shall be deemed approved.(3) If the public water system rejects the state boards proposed revised timeline, the public water system and the state board shall develop a compromise timeline within 30 days. If the public water system and the state board have not developed a compromise timeline within 30 days, the public water system shall comply with the state boards revised timeline. The state board may amend its revised timeline by incorporating elements of the public water systems proposed timeline.(4) An approved timeline or a compromise timeline shall be a public record and available on the state boards Internet Web site.(5) In cases where a portion of a public water systems distribution system is located within a Superfund site, as designated under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (42 U.S.C. Sec. 9601 et seq.), under an active cleanup order, the state board shall not propose a timeline for lead user service line replacement that does not conform to any applicable federal regulatory requirements or timelines.(d)For the purposes of this section:(1)Board means the State Water Resources Control Board.(2)Public water system has the same meaning as in Section 116275.(3)User service line has the same meaning as in Section 64551.60 of Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations.SEC. 2.
