Some projects could break ground this year but questions over funding and public opinion remain.

Spaniola said it's been a whirlwind after the Environmental Protection Agency implemented federal drinking water standards for PFAS and then listed two of the chemicals as "hazardous substances."

The Environmental Protection Agency announced the first federal limits on PFAS in drinking water. Only two Midwestern states currently have limits on levels acceptable in drinking water.

The Biden administration announced Wednesday that toxic "forever chemicals" will now be federally regulated. WCMU's environmental reporter Teresa Homsi spoke with David Nicholas about what these new drinking water standards mean for Michigan.

The federal government is cracking down on toxic "forever chemicals" with new drinking water standards.

Oscoda residents have long-noted bright white foam on their Lake Huron beach, and worried about it containing toxic "forever chemicals." A new community-led study confirms their suspicions.

Grayling residents are calling on the Department of Defense to pitch in and fund a project that would bring clean drinking water to contaminated parts of their community.

The Air Force says it plans to implement new clean up operations in Oscoda that have been long-demanded by residents.

Grayling Charter Township is hoping to construct a line that would bring municipal water to neighborhoods with PFAS-contaminated wells.

WCMU's Teresa Homsi toured Camp Grayling this past fall and is tuned into the PFAS cleanup process. She brings an overview of some ongoing National Guard initiatives.
