EPA's Office of Research and Development (ORD) hosts this monthly public webinar series to translate EPA research and share research resources and information that are useful, practical/applied and available to meet research needs of states/territories and other
EPA is hosting an informational webinar for communities on April 16, 2024 about EPA’s recently finalized Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) National Primary Drinking Water Regulation (NPDWR).
During the webinar, EPA will provide information and an overview of the final PFAS NPDWR, including the regulation’s requirements and implementation timeline.
This presentation will provide an overview of the final PFAS National Primary Drinking Water Regulation, including the key regulatory requirements and timing for water systems and drinking water primacy agencies to comply with these requirements, background on the regulation development, and funding information to support rule implementation.
The complexity of environmental exposures can be difficult to adequately capture in laboratory settings, necessitating the analysis of ‘real world’ samples for many contaminants including legacy and novel PFAS.
Presentations will focus on the initial monitoring requirement and analytical methods to be used under the regulation, the use of grant funding for small and disadvantaged community treatment programs, characterization, and risk communication and community engagement
By leveraging this knowledge, EPA remains committed to providing clear, actionable, and accessible information about PFAS to the public, researchers, and risk assessors.
The Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF)—a federal-state partnership between EPA and states—can help communities improve their drinking water infrastructure by replacing lead service lines (LSLs) and reducing exposure to emerging contaminants, including PFAS.
