Nassau trustees report initial PFAS settlement checks; plan for fund allocation
Summary
Trustee Ryan Bush reported receiving settlement checks from 3M and DuPont totaling roughly $140,000 so far and discussed depositing and moving funds for potential filtration and remediation work.
Trustee Ryan Bush told the board the village has begun receiving settlement checks related to PFAS litigation, with initial deposits from 3M and a first check from DuPont. He said the village has received roughly $140,000 in total so far and expected additional payments as other companies settle.
Board members discussed where to hold those funds; trustees said they were temporarily deposited and should be moved into the New York-class water fund or another designated account so money for future filtration or remediation efforts would be segregated and trackable. Trustee Bush and Mayor Valente agreed to follow up with the treasurer to reconcile deposits and move funds to the appropriate line once the timing of reimbursements and grant offsets is clear.
