<div><span style="font-size: 18px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: bold; font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif;">What are Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS)?</span></div>
<div><br></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif;">Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of manmade fluorinated compounds that are designed to be stable and have been in commercial use since the 1940s. The stability of the chemicals makes them difficult to degrade which is why they are often called “forever chemicals.” PFAS are in countless commercial, consumer, and industrial products and are acknowledged by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to be widely present in the environment.</span></div>
<div><br></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif;">Like other water utilities across the U.S., the MWRD is addressing how best to manage PFAS in the water environment. The MWRD’s seven water reclamation plants (WRPs) do not produce nor use PFAS but are passive receivers of these chemicals discharged to local sewers. </span></div>
<div><br></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif;">Wastewater can contain trace amounts of these chemicals from industrial, commercial and household sources. The MWRD’s WRPs were not designed to remove these chemicals during the treatment process. The use of nonstick cookware, cosmetics and sunscreens, washing clothes, and putting out fires with certain foams can all introduce PFAS into the environment. </span></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>
<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif;">The MWRD is closely following and proceeding based on the developing science on the potential impacts of PFAS. The key to pollution prevention is addressing the source of PFAS. The MWRD is working to identify and reduce industrial discharges of PFAS, learning how the discharge from these sources can be reduced and encouraging federal and state regulators to focus on stopping these chemicals at the source. The MWRD’s pretreatment program regulates industrial discharges to protect the treatment process and valuable resources the MWRD recovers.
