AN ACT AUTHORIZING BONDS OF THE STATE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A WATER STORAGE FACILITY IN THE TOWN OF SOUTH WINDSOR.

SB 198 authorizes up to $1 million in state bonds to fund a water storage facility in South Windsor. The funds would be provided as a grant to the town through the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection. The facility aims to support emergency fire responses, ensure reliable water for farms and livestock, prepare for droughts, and address rural infrastructure gaps. This bill directly affects South Windsor residents, agricultural operations, and emergency services in the town.
