Relating to the exemption of public water supply wells from regulation, permitting, or metering by the Hays Trinity Groundwater Conservation District.

HB 2812 exempts public water supply wells from regulation, permitting, and metering requirements by the Hays Trinity Groundwater Conservation District. This directly affects public water systems (like municipal utilities) operating wells within the district's jurisdiction. The bill amends state law to add "public water supply well" as a specific category excluded from district oversight under Section 8843.104(a). It removes administrative burdens for these wells, allowing water providers to operate without district permits or flow monitoring. The law takes effect September 1, 2025.
