The bill amends the Public Health Code by adding Part 57A, which focuses on exposure to perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). It establishes definitions for various terms related to the pilot program aimed at addressing PFAS exposure, including "eligible research institution," "hospital reference laboratory," "public water supply," and "qualified study participant." The bill outlines criteria for individuals who may participate in the program, particularly those who lived in certain counties and were exposed to PFAS through well water or public water supplies exceeding health screening levels.

Additionally, the bill creates the PFAS pilot program fund to support research and initiatives related to PFAS exposure. It specifies that the enactment of this amendatory act is contingent upon the passage of Senate Bill No. 299 of the 103rd Legislature. This legislative effort aims to enhance public health measures and research concerning the risks associated with PFAS substances in Michigan.
