2023 issued in a new National Defense Authorization Act, an updated Unified Agenda, a new Mil Spec for fire-fighting foams, and a litany of proposed regulations from TSCA reporting requirements to additional hazard designations for PFAS. As we close out the year, we see that EPA has achieved several of the milestones they had set for themselves while others have slipped. Meanwhile, the states have continued to forge their own paths forward with how to address PFAS contamination. And with rapidly evolving science and technologies there is an immeasurable number of developments to keep track of. This presentation will catalogue notable regulatory actions and provide an update on the state of the scientific research that is driving these regulations.
