Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill changes the federal Clean Water Act (the Federal Water Pollution Control Act) so that a water pollution discharge permit is not required when fire control and suppression products are dropped from aircraft. The exemption covers products that appear on the most current Qualified Products List kept by the U.S. Forest Service, or any list that replaces it. The bill also makes minor wording and cross-reference changes to the same section of the law.
