Senate Bill 299 establishes a pilot program in Michigan to assess the level of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) in the blood of qualified participants and study their health effects. The Department of Health will administer a grant program to a research institution to conduct this program, which involves collecting and analyzing blood samples. A new PFAS pilot program fund is created to finance the program's grants, testing costs, and the development of educational materials about PFAS. The bill requires informed consent from participants and outlines reporting requirements for the department on the program's progress and findings.
