EPA Solicits Public Comment on Adding Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) to Toxic Chemical Reporting List

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is seeking public input on a potential rule to add certain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) to the list of toxic chemicals subject to reporting under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) and the Pollution Prevention Act (PPA). The proposed rule would require companies to report on the release of these chemicals, which have raised concerns over their toxicity and persistence in the environment.
