The program will be available during fiscal year 2025 (July 1, 2024 thru June 30, 2025) and funding dependent moving forward. To request a sample kit, please complete the Wastewater/Biosolids PFAS Sampling Request form located on the PFAS grant program webpage

The division has been implementing a proactive approach to control PFAS contributions to the environment that includes measuring and trying to understand levels of PFAS in biosolids and wastewater. The concept is to identify and reduce significant sources of non-domestic PFAS entering wastewater treatment facilities.
