Minnesota PFAS Reporting Update: Deadline Extension, PRISM Reports, and Webinar
Minnesota PFAS reporting: a proposed deadline extension, new GDM reporting support, and an upcoming webinar you don’t want to miss
Minnesota’s PFAS reporting requirements continue to evolve, and staying ahead of the changes is critical for electronics manufacturers selling into the state. Recent developments suggest some welcome flexibility on timing, while at the same time reinforcing the importance of accurate, manufacturer-ready reporting.
Here’s what you need to know right now - and how GreenSoft Technology can help.
Minnesota considers extending the PFAS reporting deadline
The Minnesota Legislature is currently considering a proposal to extend the PFAS reporting deadline under the state’s PFAS in products program by one year.
HF 4257, which was introduced to the Minnesota House legislature on March 12, 2026, would delay the initial reporting deadline until July 1, 2027, and limit reporting to products manufactured on or after that date.
The reporting requirement would apply only to products that manufacturers intend to sell or distribute in Minnesota after July 1, 2027, and would not require back reporting for products manufactured or sold prior to that date. Additionally, the proposed legislation would also make changes to the Currently Unavailable Use (CUU) process, as well as exempt broad categories such as semiconductors, electronic components and automobiles, similar to New Mexico’s regulation.
If adopted, an extension would provide companies with additional time to collect PFAS content data from suppliers, validate product-level information, and prepare submissions for the Minnesota PFAS reporting system (PRISM).
It’s important to note that this is still a proposal, and has not yet been passed by the Minnesota State House or State Senate, and has not been signed into law by the Governor. Manufacturers should continue preparing as if the current reporting deadline of July 1, 2026 applies, while monitoring regulatory updates closely.
GreenSoft will continue to monitor the regulation’s progress and will post an announcement on our blog if and when the proposal is officially adopted. Subscribe to GreenSoft’s blog to get regulation news alerts delivered right to your inbox.
GreenSoft GDM software now generates a Minnesota PFAS report for PRISM submissions
To support manufacturers preparing for Minnesota PFAS compliance, GreenSoft’s latest update to GreenData Manager (GDM) software now includes a Minnesota-specific PFAS report designed to help manufacturers prepare required data for submission through the Minnesota PRISM portal.
Using PFAS substance data already managed in GDM, users can quickly identify products and components with intentionally added PFAS and generate a consolidated Minnesota PRISM report across selected BOMs. The report aligns with the PFAS substance lists and data fields defined by Minnesota, helping reduce manual research and improving consistency across products.
The GDM‑generated Minnesota PRISM report serves as a structured source file that can be used to efficiently populate the official PRISM Excel template required by the state. This approach minimizes repetitive data entry, supports internal review before submission, and helps manufacturers catch potential data issues - such as missing identifiers or substances not yet listed in PRISM - early in the process.
Minnesota PRISM reporting is supported in GDM Desktop Edition and GDM Workgroup Edition. For manufacturers using Hosted GDM, GreenSoft can generate the Minnesota PRISM report on your behalf at no additional cost, ensuring all customers can access the same reporting capability regardless of deployment model.
By leveraging GDM for Minnesota PFAS reporting, manufacturers can move away from ad‑hoc spreadsheets and toward a repeatable, auditable reporting workflow that supports both current reporting obligations and future annual updates.
