MPCA Press Release
Commissioner Laura Bishop, along with state legislators, state agency leaders, and community advocates released a coordinated, strategic approach that protects Minnesota families and communities. The agency live streamed this announcement on our YouTube channel.
Commissioner Bishop: “Every day, new PFAS are being invented, used in industry, and released into the environment,yet we know the toxicity and dangers of less than one percent of all PFAS. Using almost two decades of knowledge and experience in managing PFAS, Minnesota has developed a comprehensive, statewide blueprint to protect communities and families from PFAS contamination.”
The Blueprint includes 10 priority areas centered on additional research, new health guidance, drinking water and food protections, as well as additional tools for cleanup and prevention. You can find out more on the new Minnesota PFAS Blueprint webpage.
