New rules would limit 'forever chemicals' in our nation's water.
This bill would make the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) set new standards for PFAS, often called 'forever chemicals,' in our nation's water. It would require certain industries to limit their PFAS discharges and help local water treatment plants monitor for these chemicals. This aims to make water safer for everyone by reducing pollution from these harmful substances.
Currently, there are no specific federal standards for PFAS in water quality or for industrial discharges of these chemicals. If this bill becomes law, the EPA would be required to set these standards, industries would have to monitor and limit their PFAS pollution, and local water treatment plants would get financial help to deal with these chemicals.
