In an April 28 news release, EPA outlined upcoming agency action to address Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS), including the designation of an agency lead for PFAS, the creation of effluent limitations guidelines for certain PFAS to stop these forever chemicals from entering drinking water systems, and initiatives to engage with Congress and industry to establish a clear liability framework that ensures the polluter pays and passive receivers are protected. Activities fall under three categories: strengthening the science, fulfilling statutory obligations and enhancing communication, and building partnerships.
