Project Name PFAS Sampling

Project Number (if applicable) {Empty}

Summarize purpose of the contract, including why it was necessary: MDH has been assessing the potential health impacts of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in groundwater in Minnesota since
2002. MDH and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) have a long history of working with people in the East Metro to protect them from the health effects of PFAS in their groundwater. MDH began sampling CWSs for PFAS in 2006. Much of this sampling has taken place in the East Metro and in areas where aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) was used, such as airports and military bases.
MDH has a long-term goal of sampling all CWSs in Minnesota for PFAS. Under this goal, MDH aims to cover 90% of CWS customers under its PFAS monitoring program by 2025.
Product or Result:
Professional and Technical Sampling Services; Due to the number of systems being brought into this monitoring at once, MDH needs professional/technical services to assist with this sampling effort.
