Bill	California Safe Drinking Water Act: Sativa-Los Angeles County Water District.	Existing law, the California Safe Drinking Water Act, provides for the operation of public water systems and imposes on the State Water Resources Control Board various responsibilities and duties. The act authorizes the state board to order consolidation with a receiving water system where a public water system or a state small water system, serving a disadvantaged community, consistently fails to provide an adequate supply of safe drinking water. The act authorizes the state board, for the purpose of providing affordable, safe drinking water to disadvantaged communities and preventing fraud, waste, and abuse, to contract with an administrator to provide administrative and managerial services to a designated public water system and to order the designated public water system to accept those administrative and managerial services, including full management and control, if sufficient funding is available and if the state board finds that consolidation with another system or extension of service from another system is either not appropriate or not technically and economically feasible.	us/states/ca	California Legislature	20172018	AB 1577	California AB 1577 (20172018)	bill	California Safe Drinking Water Act: Sativa-Los Angeles County Water District.	enacted	Gipson	10	41	8	2017-02-17	2018-09-28	openstates	ocd-bill/e09febed-19f2-4832-8ad8-584e5f2f3232	http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB1577	e5ae9ce3416ba0ab76e041da654b830e68bf301b5fe33e8bb5ed41debac5b4de	2026-07-01	https://data.openstates.org/daily/2026-07-01/public.pgdump	2026-07-06	reported	legislation bill us-ca
