The Road To Understanding The Final PFAS Regulation Starts Here.
On April 10, 2024, the EPA announced the final National Primary Drinking Water Regulation for six PFAS. The regulation establishes legally enforceable levels for individual PFAS MCLs and a Hazard Index MCL for PFAS mixtures. EPA evaluated over 120,000 comments submitted by the public on the rule proposal and expects that over many years, the final rule will prevent PFAS exposure in drinking water for up to 200 million people, prevent thousands of deaths, and reduce tens of thousands of PFAS-attributable severe illnesses. Additionally, $1 billion of additional funding has been made available through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to help states and territories implement PFAS testing and treatment at public water systems and to help owners of private wells address PFAS contamination.
Monitoring for PFAS
Public water systems must monitor for these PFAS and have three years to complete initial monitoring (by 2027), followed by ongoing compliance monitoring. Water systems must also provide the public with information on the levels of these PFAS in their drinking water beginning in 2027.
Solution Implementation
Public water systems have five years (by 2029) to implement solutions that reduce these PFAS if monitoring shows that drinking water levels exceed these MCLs.
Notification to the Public
Beginning in five years (2029), public water systems that have PFAS in drinking water which violates one or more of these MCLs must take action to reduce levels of these PFAS in their drinking water and must provide notification to the public of the violation.
The following contaminants were identified as dangerous to the public.
