    By Senator Patterson

    Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

    "NEW SECTION. Sec. I.  The legislature finds that water supply availability is an important consideration in planning for future population growth, but that presently there is inadequate integration of the information relating to existing water resources and current and forecasted water use demands into the forecasts of population growth and growth management planning to accommodate the forecasted growth.  The legislature further finds that public and private municipal water suppliers having a duty to serve new growth within their service areas should have a greater role in the regional growth management planning activities that will determine the location of new growth for which adequate water service will be expected."

    Renumber the sections consecutively and correct any internal references accordingly.
