(Rockford, MI) – Wolverine Worldwide’s plan for cleaning up PFAS pollution that was caused by its former tannery has been rejected by the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy. State officials say they agree with the company that new data shows the plan as proposed won’t prevent all groundwater tainted with the forever chemicals from getting into the Rogue River. Wolverine Worldwide has 60 days to submit an updated plan to EGLE and company officials are confident they are close to an agreement.
Wolverine Worldwide says EGLE did not reject the concept of their plan and asked for better details.
