SB 960 Missouri Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Repeals and creates new provisions relating to the members of the Clean Water Commission

SB 960 restructures Missouri's Clean Water Commission by creating a new seven-member body with specific membership requirements. It mandates that appointees represent key water quality interests: one for agriculture, one for industry/mining, one for wastewater treatment, and four public representatives, all required to have demonstrated expertise in water quality. The bill also establishes strict conflict-of-interest rules, prohibiting members with ties to regulated businesses and requiring automatic recusal from relevant votes. This directly affects the governor (who appoints members), potential appointees (who must meet new qualifications), and the commission’s operational structure.
