Minnesota Delays PFAS Reporting Requirements

/in ,

Minnesota has extended the deadline for manufacturers to file initial reports on intentionally added PFAS in products from July 1 to September 15, 2026.

According to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), the extension is intended to give manufacturers more time to:

  • Establish agreements with suppliers to report on their behalf as allowed in state rule
  • Become familiar with the reporting system, known as PRISM
  • Utilize support from the MPCA

Manufacturers may also request a 90-day extension request for the initial reporting requirement, which now corresponds with a deadline of December 14, 2026.

Additional information, including guidance on using PRISM, is available on the MPCA website.  Further details on the reporting requirements, which were finalized last December, are covered in a previous post.

MPCA is also developing new rules governing currently unavoidable uses of PFAS.  Information on that rulemaking is discussed in the latter half of a previous post.
