Tax Relief and Incentives for Water Conservation

This act aims to encourage the purchase of water-efficient products, such as those with the WaterSense label. Citizens may receive rebates or other financial incentives for buying such products, and these amounts will not be counted as taxable income. Additionally, the scope of tax exclusions for subsidies related to water conservation and stormwater management is expanded.
