Modifies provisions relating to the Clean Water Commission

SB 1009 creates Missouri's "Clean Water Commission" to oversee water quality regulations, replacing the previous structure. The commission will consist of seven governor-appointed members (with Senate approval), requiring balanced political representation (max four from one party), expertise in conservation/water contaminants, and specific knowledge of agriculture, industry, mining, or wastewater treatment needs. Members must avoid conflicts of interest with permit holders and demonstrate water quality expertise. The commission must hold public meetings, maintain a four-member quorum, and operate under defined rules for conflicts of interest. This bill directly affects state water pollution regulation and the entities subject to its oversight.
