State and local officials met with Port Huron Township residents last Wednesday night to share updates on PFAS contamination at Thompson Pond. The Michigan PFAS Action Response Team said the chemicals, often called “forever chemicals,” were found in surface water but not in nearby drinking wells. The site remains under investigation, though officials believe a thick clay layer is protecting groundwater. Cleanup continues across eastern St. Clair County, including soil removal at a former compost site on Dove Road. Residents are urged to follow fish advisories and stay informed as testing continues.
