A.J. LouderbackTexas State Representative, District 30
House Bill 292 proposes to stop the application of biosolids—treated sewage sludge—to agricultural land in Texas counties with populations between 170,000 and 190,000. The bill aims to protect farmland, grazing areas, and livestock operations from potential contamination. It requires stronger oversight, monitoring, and reporting of any sludge applications that do occur on non-agricultural land.
