PFAS in Wexford County

PFAS + Wexford County

As a Wexford County resident, you and the 33,433 people living in your community need to stay informed about the threat posed by toxic PFAS contamination.

A quick look at the numbers in Wexford County:

  • There are 0 sites contaminated with toxic PFAS.
  • 18% of residents are over the age of 65, and their health can be aggravated by PFAS contamination.
  • 5.8% are children, who are especially vulnerable to PFAS.

To combat the harmful effects of PFAS, we must:

  • Raise awareness of PFAS contamination in Wexford County waterways, and conduct local events to educate boaters and swimmers of the risks associated with PFAS.
  • Recruit volunteers in key communities such as Cadillac and Wedgewood to get the word out about this risk to our community.
  • Raise funds to continue testing important water sources like Cadillac Lake and Lake Meauwataka.
  • Raise awareness of potential PFAS contamination in Wexford County waterways.
