PFAS

The EPA seeks to dismiss a lawsuit over toxic PFAS contamination in sewage sludge used as fertilizer.

Polluters and utility groups have repeatedly stymied efforts to impose stricter limits on contaminants.

Increased military flight trainings would have dire environmental and public health effects in Arizona and New Mexico.

Experts warn that allies of the Republican nominee aim to undermine the EPA's ability to regulate forever chemicals.

Meanwhile, another new study showed that these “forever chemicals” can be absorbed through the skin.

The EPA may have violated the Clean Water Act by failing to identify at least 18 PFAS substances in sewage sludge.

New technology could help water utilities remove stubborn PFAS chemicals linked to cancer and other maladies.

The agency found PFAS in pesticides but failed to disclose those results, alleges a former EPA research fellow.

A study published this week shows that PFAS now contaminate 95 percent of the US's fresh surface water supply.

These hazardous substances may be sent to commercial incinerators that are predominantly found in Black communities.
