Some state agencies have proposed PFAS legislation that seeks to regulate the substances\u2019 concentration in everyday products and necessities through mechanisms such as drinking water limits, prohibitions on firefighting foam, and the development of groundwater and surface water quality standards.<a href=\"#_edn1\" name=\"_ednref1\">[1]<\/a> U.S. EPA is still in the research and development phase of providing national recommendations.<\/p>\n<p>PFAS are a group of synthetic chemicals used in manufactured goods such as Teflon, waterproof materials, and firefighting foams.<a href=\"#_edn2\" name=\"_ednref2\">[2]<\/a> PFAS are ubiquitous, persist in the environment, and bioaccumulate. Studies have found that ninety-seven percent of people have PFAS in their blood stream.<a href=\"#_edn3\" name=\"_ednref3\">[3]<\/a> Research indicates PFAS exposure negatively impacts human health, from immunological effects to cancer.<a href=\"#_edn4\" name=\"_ednref4\">[4]<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>In the past sixty days, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, and New York have all adopted combined drinking water limits for PFOS and PFOA (chemical constituents in the PFAS family) more stringent than the EPA\u2019s 70 parts per trillion (ppt) guideline.<a href=\"#_edn5\" name=\"_ednref5\">[5]<\/a> The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) has been comparatively slow to regulate PFAS, though last week the agency released a draft to amend the state\u2019s groundwater quality thresholds<a href=\"#_edn6\" name=\"_ednref6\">[6]<\/a> to include six different PFAS constituents.<a href=\"#_edn7\" name=\"_ednref7\">[7]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Aside from U.S. EPA\u2019s 70 ppt combined PFOA and PFOS lifetime drinking water limit exposure, there are no nationally recommended groundwater or water quality standards for any PFAS constituent. This leaves states to develop their own thresholds with differing methodologies, which are often determined by state administrative codes. It also allows states to decide which of the more than 5,000 PFAS constituents they want to regulate, creating an ad hoc and somewhat arbitrary adoption of standards.<\/p>\n<p>In May, The American Water Works Association (AWWA), the largest organization representing wastewater treatment facilities across the nation, submitted comments to the EPA voicing their support for the EPA to regulate PFAS constituents.<a href=\"#_edn8\" name=\"_ednref8\">[8]<\/a> The AWWA\u2019s comments cautioned, however, that state and federal regulations, such as the Clean Water Act, would not, \u201cstop PFAS from entering the U.S. surface and ground water.\u201d<a href=\"#_edn9\" name=\"_ednref9\">[9]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>While developing standards and criteria at the end-of-pipe stage may remove PFAS contamination from the environment, these regulations do not address the use of these contaminants at the source.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\">[1]<\/a> Cynthia Stroman, <em>PFAS Update \u2013 States Continue to Move Ahead<\/em>, King and Spalding LLP (Sept. 17, 2020), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lexology.com\/library\/detail.aspx?g=0a6d2d24-6c81-4780-b6f9-4bd31a1b46bb\">https:\/\/www.lexology.com\/library\/detail.aspx?g=0a6d2d24-6c81-4780-b6f9-4bd31a1b46bb<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#_ednref2\" name=\"_edn2\">[2]<\/a> <em>Basic information on PFAS<\/em>, The United States Environmental Protection Agency, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.epa.gov\/pfas\/basic-information-pfas\">https:\/\/www.epa.gov\/pfas\/basic-information-pfas<\/a>.
