SB 256 -- SEWER SYSTEMS; BONDS FOR WATER AND SEWER PROJECTS

Under this bill, nothing in the Clean Water Law may be deemed to
prohibit any political subdivision with a sewer system from
requiring that property owners within the subdivision connect to
the system.

The bill also authorizes the Board of Fund Commissioners to
issue bonds for grants and loans pursuant to several sections of
Article III of the Missouri Constitution.  The authorizations
are in addition to sums authorized prior to August 28, 2002, and
are for:

(1)  $10 million of bonds for water pollution control, drinking
water system improvements, and storm water control pursuant to
Section 37(e);

(2)  $10 million of bonds for rural water and sewer projects
pursuant to Section 37(g); and

(3)  $20 million of bonds for storm water control plans,
studies, and projects in first classification counties and the
City of St. Louis pursuant to Section 37(h).

The bill contains an emergency clause.
