IRONWOOD - The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy (EGLE) is dedicating $9 million in grants to 19 municipal airports including the Gogebic Iron County airport in Ironwood to address PFAS contamination from firefighting foam. PFAS are persistent chemicals linked to serious health problems, including cancer and reproductive issues. The funds, which stem from a 2017 response team, will support testing, monitoring, cleanup of groundwater and stormwater, and equipment replacement. EGLE received $14.8 million in requests. The Gogebic-Iron County Airport is slated to receive just over $361,000.
