This bill requires public utilities that provide sewage services to create a plan for maintaining and operating their systems, including mapping, inspections, and funding. It also changes the Governmental Tort Claims Act by increasing the maximum award amounts for certain claims against the state or political subdivisions and expanding the types of situations where the state or political subdivision cannot be held responsible for losses, particularly those related to sanitary sewer overflows. These changes aim to encourage better utility management and adjust liability for related incidents.
