The current system is that if the septic is found to be in failure, it has to be replaced.
We have a way to monitor that. Samples can detect E Coli, a sign of septic waste entering the lake. And can be tested to determine what species is the culprit.
After that, it isn't hard to track backward.
The Legislature just touched on this last session, and the current LSRs have this...
2026-2058 SB Title: relative to cyanobacteria and other emerging environmental water quality issues.
Sponsors: (Prime) David Watters
2026-2184 SB Title: eliminating the use of agitators in instances where temporary docks have been removed from bodies of water.
Sponsors: (Prime) Regina Birdsell
2026-2326 HB Title: requiring disclosure of Japanese Knotweed in real property transactions.
Sponsors: (Prime) Cathryn Harvey
2026-2332 HB Title: adding cyanobacteria and algae blooms to the study of the exotic aquatic weeds and species committee.
Sponsors: (Prime) Tanya Donnelly
2026-2345 HB Title: relative to changes to the Winnipesaukee river basin control replacement fund.
Sponsors: (Prime) Steven Bogert
So, it isn't like nothing is being looked at.
