Webinar: PFAs Primer for the Public Sector

July 16, 2025
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM MT

Addressing PFAS continues to challenge local government, water providers, and wastewater providers, particularly in a rapidly changing regulatory environment. Regulatory initiatives will have costly and widespread impacts on public water supplies and wastewater services. These efforts, combined with the mission of utilities to provide safe drinking water and protect the environment, create a need for funding to reduce the impact on utility ratepayers.

Join us for an update on the current status of regulatory developments under the Safe Drinking Water Act, Clean Water Act, CERCLA, and RCRA, all targeted to regulate PFAS levels in the environment. We will also discuss the current status and availability of funding to reduce the impact of PFAS on utility ratepayers.

One hour of CLE is pending in Arizona, California, Colorado, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Texas.
