Wisconsin proposes law to alert communities within a week of unsafe groundwater contaminants.
Rep. Jill Billings has introduced the Water Quality Notification Act in Wisconsin, requiring the DNR to inform county and tribal health departments within one week of detecting unsafe levels of contaminants like PFAS, nitrates, and arsenic in groundwater.
The bipartisan bill aims to improve public health by ensuring timely alerts to communities, particularly those relying on private wells, enabling faster action to protect families.
It supports transparency, expands access to testing and remediation, and strengthens accountability without imposing new regulations.
The legislation follows concerns over delayed contamination warnings and has drawn support from health officials and advocacy groups.
