ECOS Releases Compendium of State PFAS Actions

On Thursday, April 17th, the Environmental Council of the States (ECOS) released a Compendium of State Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Actions. PFAS, also called forever chemicals, are synthetic chemicals that accumulate in the body and are linked to potential health risks.

States and their drinking water offices have been at the forefront of implementing technologies and policies to reduce the chemicals in drinking water and ensure public health. ECOS compiled these critical actions into one comprehensive compendium that details the wide range of approaches to address PFAS across the nation. Anyone may view the Compendium here.
