California has a major PFAS crisis impacting the environment and public health: virtually all Californians have PFAS in their bodies, and the chemicals have been detected in at least 146 public water systems serving 16 million people.

EPA is proposing enforceable Safe Drinking Water Act limits on the two oldest PFAS chemicals, and also considering an innovative approach to the problem of the thousands of other PFAS chemicals, some of which are also being found in drinking water. EPA needs to hear that you support strong drinking water limits and further action to get these toxic chemicals out of our environment.
