A faulty module caused a PFAS-laden foam spill at a Maine airport in 2024, prompting cleanup and ongoing oversight.
A root cause analysis found a faulty electronic module likely caused a 1,400- to 1,450-gallon spill of PFAS-containing firefighting foam at Brunswick Executive Airport in August 2024, releasing the foam mixed with 50,000 gallons of water into a nearby pond.
The Midcoast Regional Redevelopment Authority (MRRA) has since removed all such chemicals, complying with a new state law, and is accepting public questions about the findings until October 19, 2025, with responses planned for a board meeting on October 29.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers transported some foam for disposal research, and excess was sold to American Airlines.
The EPA has not imposed penalties and given MRRA until 2027 to address fire suppression systems.
