TOXIC PFAS IS THREATENING OUR HEALTH STAND UP TO POLLUTERS TOGETHER

PFAS + Mackinac County

As a Mackinac County resident, you and the 10,781 people living in your community need to stay informed about the threat posed by toxic PFAS contamination.

A quick look at the numbers in Mackinac County:

• There is 1 site contaminated with toxic PFAS.
• 26% of residents are over the age of 65, and their health can be aggravated by PFAS contamination.
• 4.4% are children, who are especially vulnerable to PFAS.

To combat the harmful effects of PFAS, we must:

• Raise funds to clean up the City of Mackinac Island Landfill.
• Raise awareness of PFAS contamination in Mackinac County waterways, and conduct local events to educate boaters and swimmers of the risks associated with PFAS.
• Recruit volunteers in key communities such as Cedarville and St. Ignace to get the word out about this risk to our community.
• Raise funds to continue testing important water sources like Grass Lake.
• Raise awareness of potential PFAS contamination in Mackinac County waterways.
