PFAS

The test requires a finger prick and then the sample is sent to a lab to determine levels of PFAS in a person exposed to one or more of the chemicals.

People affected by PFAS contamination are pushing Michigan lawmakers for more action. But it could be weeks until legislation is introduced in the state House.

The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy (EGLE) will begin using U.S. EPA Method 533 this month. The method tests for 25 kinds of chemicals called PFAS, including the seven PFAS currently regulated by the State of Michigan.

Wolverine Worldwide and 3M will pay millions to homeowners in northern Kent County where PFAS contamination was found.

Wolverine Worldwide was required to submit the plan under a consent decree reached with the state in 2020.

The EPA plan announced Tuesday would limit toxic PFAS chemicals to the lowest level that tests can detect.

Michigan has reached its first settlement in a series of lawsuits over PFAS contamination.

The administration missed its own 2022 deadline to set new standards.

Wolverine Worldwide was supposed to start construction of a remediation system on the Rogue River in September.

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services has new guidelines about eating fish from seven different lakes across the state.
