  • Fluorinated Firefighting Foam Survey Results

    Fluorinated Firefighting Foam Survey Results

    Fluorinated Firefighting Foam Survey Results September 2020 1 Introduction In 2019, Wisconsin Executive Order #40 directed the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to create a PFAS Coordinating Council and “identify and prioritize sites with likely PFAS.” To this end, the biennial budget earmarked $50,000 for DNR to “conduct a survey of local and state emergency responders to determine the level of use of PFAS-containing firefighting foam.” Subsequently, the DNR created the inter-bureau and inter-agency “AFFF Survey, BMPs and Clean Sweep Team” to, among other things, create a firefighting foam survey for delivery to fire departments. Its objectives were to: 1) quantify the volume of PFAS-containing foam concentrate in storage statewide to help estimate the cost of a potential state-run collection and disposal effort; 2) help DNR understand how often and where PFAS- containing firefighting foam is used around the state; and 3) help DNR build strong and lasting relationships with Wisconsin’s firefighting community to better protect firefighters and the environment. In developing this survey, the team reviewed surveys from other states (MI, MN, NY, ME, VT, NH) and asked them for advice. The team also partnered with the Wisconsin Fire Chiefs Association, WTCS Fire Training Center and DSPS Fire Safety. In all, 11 external partners reviewed the draft survey and offered their approval. In January 2020, the team contracted with the University of Wisconsin Survey Center to administer the survey. A pre-notice letter was mailed to approximately 825 fire chiefs around the state to inform them of the survey and provide advance notice of an email invitation to complete the survey online.
