WI Reaches PFAS Settlement

Wisconsin has reached a ten-million-dollar settlement with Tyco Fire Products over PFAS contamination linked to firefighting foam. 

The agreement resolves part of a 2022 lawsuit alleging Tyco released PFAS chemicals into the environment beginning in 1962.  State officials say the money will be placed in a trust fund for cleanup efforts.  Tyco also agreed to continue providing replacement wells and support long-term monitoring and remediation.  A separate lawsuit involving Tyco and other companies remains active.
