Wisconsin Senate passes 8-figure PFAS grant bill
Fox News
The Wisconsin state Senate on Tuesday approved a bill allowing municipalities and landowners to tap into a $125 million state fund to combat PFAS pollution.
The bill would create grants for Wisconsin cities, towns and villages, as well as private landowners and waste disposal facilities, to test for PFAS in water treatment plants and wells. The money would come from a $125 million fund that GOP legislators included in the state budget to deal with the chemicals.
Under the bill, the DNR would need landowners' permission to test their water for PFAS and would be responsible for remediation at contaminated sites where the responsible party is unknown or can't pay for the work.
