SB 60 Connecticut Senate · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT REQUIRING THE TESTING FOR PFAS WHENEVER A WASTE-TO-ENERGY PLANT APPLIES FOR EXPANSION.

SB 60 requires waste-to-energy facilities to test for PFAS (forever chemicals) whenever they apply to expand their operations. The Department of Energy and Environmental Protection would mandate this testing as part of the expansion approval process. This directly affects facilities seeking to grow their capacity, ensuring potential PFAS contamination is assessed before expansion. The key provision adds a testing requirement to standard expansion applications, without specifying testing methods or thresholds.
