The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has finalized the nation’s first drinking water standard for “forever chemicals (PFAS)” at a Limit of Quantitation of 4 ppt, a group of persistent human-made chemicals that can pose a health risk to people at even the smallest detectable levels of exposure.  The Department of Defense (DOE) and Department of Energy (DOE) has also updated their requirements for analyzing PFAS in their Quality Systems Manual Version 6.0.

The new rules would limit pollution from these per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, which persist in the environment for centuries.  Exposure to PFAS has been linked to an increased risk of certain types of cancer, low birth weights, high cholesterol, and negative effects on the liver, thyroid and can compromise a person’s immune and cardiovascular systems.
