Sewage - As enacted, clarifies that a utility system providing waste water service must provide a connection if certain criteria are met. - Amends TCA Title 7, Chapter 35; Title 7, Chapter 82 and Title 68, Chapter 221.

SB 2057 clarifies that wastewater utility systems must provide sewer connections to property owners when the utility has a gravity sewer line located *adjacent* to the property, not just when the line is physically on the property. This change directly affects property owners seeking sewer connections who currently face barriers if the utility line runs alongside but doesn’t cross their land. The bill amends Tennessee law (specifically TCA Titles 7, Chapters 35 and 82, and Title 68, Chapter 221) to remove the requirement that the sewer line must be "on" the property, simplifying the connection process. The key mechanism is updating the legal language to explicitly include "adjacent" as sufficient for connection eligibility.
