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, including "eligible research institution," "PFAS," "pilot program," and "qualified county." The bill outlines criteria for "qualified study participants," specifically targeting individuals 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 institutions conducting studies on 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. Overall, the bill aims to address public health concerns related to PFAS exposure and facilitate research to better understand its impact.
