Bill: Water Quality Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: United Labour Party of Telamon
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: December 2460
Description[?]:
| Currently, Telamon has only one water quality standard for all water. This means that we can not use recycled water for our industries because all water that is for human use must meet the high quality standards of tap water for human consumption. We feel that industry should be allowed to use recycled water in non-human contact or/and consumption situations to save resources. |

Old value:: The government sets a single standard to ensure all tap water is drinkable.

| Random fact: "Game mechanics comes first." For example, if a currently-enforced bill sets out one law, then a player cannot claim the government has set out a contradictory law. |
