AI Summary
This bill provides $1,550,000 in state bond funding to the city of Oak Park Heights specifically for designing and engineering improvements to municipal wells and water treatment infrastructure to address PFAS contamination. PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are a group of human-made chemicals known for their persistence in the environment and potential health risks. The bill authorizes the commissioner of management and budget to sell state bonds to finance this infrastructure project, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota statutes and the state constitution. The funding is intended to help the city develop plans to remediate and remove PFAS from its drinking water, with the goal of improving water quality and public health. The bill would become effective immediately after its final enactment, allowing the city to proceed quickly with the water infrastructure design process.
