INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Gatto

                        FEBRUARY 26, 2015

   An act to amend Section 13520 of the Water Code, relating to
water.



	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 824, as introduced, Gatto. Recycled water: recycling criteria.
   Existing law, the Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act,
requires the State Department of Public Health to establish uniform
statewide recycling criteria for each varying type of use of recycled
water if the use involves the protection of public health. The act
defines recycling criteria to mean the levels of constituents of
recycled water, and the means for assurance of reliability under the
design concept that will result in recycled water that is safe for
the uses to be made.
   This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to that
definition.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 13520 of the Water Code is amended to read:
   13520.  As used in this article "recycling criteria" are the
levels of constituents of recycled water, and  the  means
for assurance of reliability under the design concept  which
  that  will result in recycled water  that is
 safe from the standpoint of public health, for the uses to be
made  of the recycled water .
