The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) has announced a six-month extension to its PFAS reporting deadline. Originally set for Jan. 1, 2026, the new reporting deadline is now July 1, 2026.
This announcement is a result of the advocacy efforts of the RV Industry Association (RVIA), industry partners and widespread concern expressed by the manufacturing community about the lack of time to comply with the rapidly approaching reporting deadline. This extension applies to manufacturers who make, sell and/or distribute products in Minnesota containing intentionally added PFAS.
The decision to extend the deadline was based in part on the concerns raised by the RV Industry Association and others, who emphasized that the original deadline was impracticable due to the volume of data being requested, the complexity of supply chains (especially for manufacturers of complex products), and the fact that the final rule has yet to be published and the reporting platform has not been implemented.
This decision will provide much-needed time to collect the required information. The RV Industry Association’s advocacy efforts included two sets of written comments, a formal meeting with Minnesota Pollution Control Agency staff, verbal testimony during the May 22 public hearing and participation in extensive coalition activities.
