Clean Water Council outlines funding framework; lawmakers press on PFAS, treatment limits and metro priorities Jen Kader, Clean Water Council administrator, briefed the committee on the council's adaptive management investment framework, recent deliverables and a FY28–29 forecast (~$330 million); lawmakers pressed whether Clean Water Fund dollars can be used to mitigate PFAS contamination, and agency witnesses described statutory constraints and current PFAS‑related uses of the fund.

The Clean Water Council is set to allocate $330 million for the next biennium, but lawmakers are pressing hard on whether these funds can tackle PFAS contamination in our waterways.
