In April 2024 US EPA finalized the National Primary Drinking Water Regulations (NPDWR) Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) for PFOA, PFOS and four other PFAS. It includes complicated requirements we’ve never had in water regulation before, including the Hazard Index MCL and Trigger Levels to determine if a system may go on a reduced monitoring schedule.
During this presentation attendees will learn how these interact and are calculated, the timeline for implementation of the initial monitoring and enforcement of the MCLs, and how UCMR 5 data can be used for initial monitoring.
