SB 796 Michigan Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Appropriations: supplemental; funding for PFAS mitigation and water safety; provide for. Creates appropriation act.

SB 796 is a funding bill that allocates supplemental state money for fiscal year 2026 to address PFAS contamination in water. It provides direct funding to state agencies responsible for water safety and PFAS mitigation programs, primarily benefiting communities affected by PFAS ("forever chemicals") in drinking water sources. The key mechanism is creating a new appropriation within the state budget specifically for water testing, cleanup, and safety measures related to PFAS. This bill does not create new regulations but ensures dedicated funding for existing water safety efforts targeting PFAS contamination.
