ALGOMA TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WOOD) — State authorities are expanding one of the PFAS contamination study areas near Rockford to include about 100 more homes.
The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality said the Wolven study area is being expanded to include parcels of land between Summit Avenue and US-131, starting at 11 Mile Road and extending about half a mile north.
The DEQ says it’s expanding the study area as a precaution because of the ways streams used to run through the area, possibly carrying PFAS contamination.
