PFAS: An Emerging Contaminant of Concern - - EHS and Sustainability Conference

Welcome to the 2023 “Day at the Park” EHS and Sustainability Conference presented by KERAMIDA. KERAMIDA's John Young, Senior Project Manager of Land Services, discusses the hot topic of PFAS and gives a brief introduction to per and poly fluoralkyl substances before providing an update into regulatory action.

At the federal level, the EPA has been using a systematic approach to building policy and precedent to protect public health and the environment from effects of PFAS exposure. This is notably marked by the 2021 release of the PFAS Strategic Roadmap. From there the EPA has established health advisory limits, Maximum Contaminant Level Goals (MCLGs), and proposed Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) for drinking water standards.

The EPA has also proposed several PFAS species as hazardous substances under CERCLA. On the state level, IDEM is not stepping out of line with federal action by passing any legislation more restrictive or protective than the federal government. IDEM is adding species of PFAS to the R2 Published Level Tables as toxicological data becomes available. IDEM also recently completed analysis of many public drinking water suppliers throughout Indiana in preparation of MCL rules which will limit the amount of PFAS acceptable in drinking water supplies. More rules and regulations surrounding this emerging contaminant of concern are sure to follow.
