Overview: Bill Number: H 922, Title: An Act relative to greywater recycling, Status: Reporting date extended to Wednesday, December 31, 2025, Introduced: February 27, 2025, Classification: bill

Purpose and Intent: The purpose of this bill is to promote the use of greywater recycling systems in residential and commercial buildings. Greywater, which is wastewater from sinks, showers, and washing machines, can be treated and reused for non-potable purposes, such as landscape irrigation, reducing the demand for freshwater resources.

Key Provisions:
- Requires new construction and major renovations to include greywater recycling systems
- Provides tax credits and other financial incentives to encourage the installation of greywater systems in existing buildings
- Establishes standards and regulations for the design, installation, and maintenance of greywater systems
- Directs the state's environmental agency to develop educational programs and technical assistance for homeowners and businesses

Affected Parties and Impacts: This bill would primarily affect homeowners, developers, and businesses, who would be required or incentivized to install greywater recycling systems. The broader impact would be on the state's water resources, as the increased use of greywater could significantly reduce freshwater consumption and wastewater discharge.

Procedural and Timeline Considerations: The reporting date for this bill has been extended to December 31, 2025, indicating that the legislative process is still ongoing and the bill has not yet been voted on or enacted.
