FPA Signs the U.S. Chamber’s Coalition Letter Highlighting Concerns About the EPA Undertaking a Rulemaking Process to Potentially Designate Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA) and Perfluorooctane Sulfonic Acid (PFOS) as Hazardous Substances

The undersigned organizations support policy and practical solutions that will accelerate the cleanup of per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the environment. As the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) undertakes a rulemaking process to potentially designate perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) as hazardous substances under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), we write to express our concern over the unintended consequences this action could have on communities and companies nationwide.
