Funding from the clean water fund provided for a demonstration project to treat landfill leachate for PFAS, chloride, and other contaminants; and money appropriated.

This bill allocates $5.5 million from the Clean Water Fund to support a demonstration project in Lyon County aimed at treating landfill leachate. The funds will be used to construct a system that removes contaminants such as PFAS, chloride, and other pollutants from groundwater near the Lyon County Regional Landfill. This one-time appropriation is intended to protect local water supplies by testing a new method for cleaning contaminated water before it enters the environment. The legislation directly affects the Pollution Control Agency, which will administer the grant, and the residents of Lyon County who rely on the region's groundwater.
