SF 2408 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Prohibition delay of certain PFAS-containing firefight foam at airport hangars

This bill delays the ban on PFAS-containing class B firefighting foam at airport hangars until January 1, 2028. It directly affects airport operators who currently use this foam, requiring them to submit annual reports to the state fire marshal by December 31 each year about their transition plans, disposal of PFAS foam, and progress toward meeting federal safety requirements. The delay allows time for the Federal Aviation Administration to finalize guidance on fluorine-free foam alternatives and for those alternatives to become commercially available in sufficient quantities. Airport operators may request a one-year extension with approval from both the Pollution Control Agency and State Fire Marshal, provided environmental and public safety protections are maintained.
