Brunswick passes unprecedented PFAS resolution calling for action after spill

TIMES RECORD • September 3, 2024

Brunswick Town Council called for action from the Midcoast Regional Redevelopment Authority and the Maine Department of Environmental Protection, adopting an unprecedented resolution Tuesday night. Just days after MRRA came under fire in a special public meeting, the Brunswick Town Council voted unanimously to call on MRRA and the Maine DEP to take several steps, including moves to safeguard human health and the environment as well as accountability measures, such as taking a statewide inventory of the toxic firefighting foam known as AFFF that was spilled on Aug. 19.
