If your role has anything at all to do with drinking water, you are no doubt aware that the U.S. EPA announced plans to rescind the individual limits on HFPO-DA (GenX), PFHxS, and PFNA and the Hazard Index limit for HFPO-DA, PFHxS, PFNA, and PFBS under the National Primary Drinking Water Regulations (NPDWR). In addition, they announced plans to extend the deadline for compliance with PFOA and PFOS Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) from 2029 to 2031.
