  • Amends Arizona Revised Statutes Section 49-286 regarding mitigation of nonhazardous releases affecting drinking water sources.

  • Changes the phrase "non-hazardous" to "nonhazardous" for consistency in terminology.

  • Replaces the vague reference "the effective date of this chapter" with the specific date "August 13, 1986" to clarify when substances must have been disposed to trigger mitigation obligations.
