More funding for Wisconsin chemical-pollution work
Wisconsin’s Department of Natural Resources gets $1.619456 million from the PFAS fund for operations in fiscal year 2025-26. This supports PFAS work within its fish, wildlife, and parks program, not direct household payments. A continuing appropriation adds $10.413 million in fiscal year 2025-26 and $478,000 in fiscal year 2026-27. That money must address PFAS through work required by the companion legislation and not funded elsewhere. The act is void if neither 2025 Senate Bill 128 nor Assembly Bill 131 becomes law during the 2025-26 session.
More funding for Wisconsin natural-resource programs
The law adds $1.3104 million from Wisconsin’s general fund for Department of Natural Resources programs in fiscal year 2026-27. This includes $118,900 for conservation, the Lower Wisconsin State Riverway, fisheries management, and trapper education. It adds $929,900 for water-resource management and protection, environmental quality, and environmental management. Another $261,600 supports communications, customer services, grant administration, watershed management, environmental analysis, and sustainability—not direct household payments. The act is void if neither 2025 Senate Bill 128 nor Assembly Bill 131 becomes law during the 2025-26 session.
More funding for Wisconsin well compensation
The law adds $35 million from Wisconsin’s PFAS fund for well compensation grants in fiscal year 2025-26. Wisconsin’s Department of Natural Resources administers the grants. This funding provision does not specify which households qualify or how much they receive. The act is void if neither 2025 Senate Bill 128 nor Assembly Bill 131 becomes law during the 2025-26 session.
More pollution grant funding for Wisconsin airports
The law adds $5.25 million from Wisconsin’s PFAS fund for airport grants in fiscal year 2025-26. Wisconsin’s Department of Natural Resources administers the grants for airport work involving PFAS chemicals. The funding does not provide direct household payments. The act is void if neither 2025 Senate Bill 128 nor Assembly Bill 131 becomes law during the 2025-26 session.
More pollution grants for Wisconsin communities
The law adds $79.5225 million from Wisconsin’s PFAS fund for community grants in fiscal year 2025-26. Wisconsin’s Department of Natural Resources administers these grants for community work involving PFAS chemicals. This funding does not establish direct household payments. The act is void if neither 2025 Senate Bill 128 nor Assembly Bill 131 becomes law during the 2025-26 session.
