Summary

Drinking Water System Improvement Act of 2017 This bill amends the Safe Drinking Water Act to address the infrastructure of public water systems and compliance by the systems with drinking water regulations. Community water systems must include in their consumer confidence reports information about: (1) corrosion control efforts, (2) any exceedances of the lead action level for which corrective action has been required, and (3) violations that occurred. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) must revise regulations for consumer confidence reports as outlined by the bill. The EPA must develop a strategic plan for improving the accuracy and availability of compliance monitoring data. Within five years and every five years thereafter, the EPA must review, and if appropriate, update educational materials concerning best practices for asset management strategies that may be used by public water systems. The bill: (1) reauthorizes through FY2022 the public water system supervision grant program and the source water petition program, and (2) reauthorizes through FY2022 and revises the drinking water state revolving fund. The EPA must review and report to the public on existing and potential methods, means, equipment, and technologies for the treatment and distribution of drinking water. The EPA must also establish a grant program for the replacement of drinking water fountains that contain lead in schools and day care facilities. This bill amends the Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act of 1986 to ensure that states and community water systems are notified of a release of a contaminant into their source waters.
