MADISON, Wisconsin, April 4 -- Clean Wisconsin issued the following news release:
Earlier this year, Assembly lawmakers passed Senate Bill 312, which now heads to Gov. Evers' desk for approval. The bill would result in PFAS 'forever chemicals' being treated differently from every other hazardous substance under Wisconsin's Spill's Law. As written, the bill limits the Department of Natural Resource's ability to order responsible parties to clean up PFAS on private property.
