The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) is reminding everyone to avoid foam on Michigan lakes and rivers known to have PFAS in the water, including the Huron River. Swimming or bathing in water containing PFAS is NOT a health concern because the amount of PFAS is typically low compared to the foam. Although swallowing PFAS is the main way to get it in your body, an accidental swallow of river or lake water is NOT a health concern.

MDHHS has issued a Do Not Eat advisory for fish from the Huron River where North Wixom Road crosses in Oakland County to the mouth of the Huron River as it enters Lake Erie in Wayne County.
