Local leaders in Wausau say they are thankful and ready for new federal rules on PFAS chemicals.
The Biden Administration yesterday unveiled new standards for the so-called forever chemicals, and they are much lower than the standards in Wisconsin. Wausau is building a PFAS treatment center at its water treatment plant, and Mayor Katie Rosenberg says that turned-out to be a great decision. She says there’s no way they could meet the new, lower threshold without a new treatment facility.
