✦ Plain-Language Summary
This bill updates the legal definition of 'sewage' to include stormwater runoff for certain water and sewer authorities in New York State. This change allows these authorities to officially manage, treat, and regulate stormwater the same way they handle other types of sewage. As a result, communities may gain better tools to address flooding, water pollution, and infrastructure challenges caused by stormwater.
