These standards would impact Florida and no other state, setting higher standards for runoff water than we have for drinking water. As you can imagine, meeting these almost impossibly strict standards would be incredibly costly. According to one estimate, water bills in Florida would double, and compliance would cost our state $2 billion per year. For state and local governments – and taxpayers who would ultimately foot the bill – this cost increase would be devastating." – Senator Rubio And Representative Rooneyhttps://www.rubio.senate.gov/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/SMR-Twitter-image-9-1024x576.png1024576
