PFAS in Ingham County

PFAS + Ingham County

As an Ingham County resident, you and the 290,923 people living in your community need to stay informed about the threat posed by toxic PFAS contamination.

A quick look at the numbers in Ingham County:

  • There are 4 sites contaminated with toxic PFAS.
  • 12% of residents are over the age of 65, and their health can be aggravated by PFAS contamination.
  • 5.3% are children, who are especially vulnerable to PFAS.

To combat the harmful effects of PFAS, we must:

  • Raise funds to clean up the Adams Plating and Kent Cleaners.
  • Raise awareness of PFAS contamination in Ingham County waterways, and conduct local events to educate boaters and swimmers of the risks associated with PFAS.
  • Recruit volunteers in key communities such as Mason and Dansville to get the word out about this risk to our community.
  • Raise funds to continue testing important water sources like Jones Lake and Nichols Lake.
  • Raise awareness of potential PFAS contamination in Ingham County waterways.
