"Gov. Tony Evers and AG Josh Kaul hailed a settlement in a lawsuit over PFAS contamination that will require Tyco to pay out $10 million as well as foot the bill for existing cleanup.

According to the state Department of Justice, the $10 million is on top of the approximately $100 million Tyco has already spent to address contamination in the Marinette area. The settlement is one of the largest resulting from a DNR referral in state history, according to Evers’ office.

“We’ve worked to lead the fight against PFAS from Day One of my administration, and today’s a key step toward making sure polluters are held accountable, take responsibility for their actions, and ensure Wisconsinites don’t have to foot the bill for cleaning up the messes that others made,” Evers said in a statement yesterday."
