PFAS - A Basic Review

HRP has prepared a paper that discusses the regulatory environment surrounding PFAS, the potential liabilities and how they might affect property transactions and certain utility operations.

Abstract

“Due to the widespread use of PFAS and resulting releases, a broad range of these substances have been detected in the environment, wildlife, and humans. The widespread detection of PFAS coupled with its toxicological concerns have heightened concern resulting in a rapidly evolving PFAS regulatory landscape. This landscape poses potential liabilities for businesses such as industrial sites, water supply companies and landfills to name a few. The real issue is how PFAS will be regulated and what are the potential liabilities and expected impacts. This paper reviews the PFAS issues, their historical uses, potential impacts on users, and discusses what businesses can expect with this ever evolving concern.“
