The Webinar

In April, 2024, the EPA announced the final National Primary Drinking Water Regulation (NPDWR) for six PFAS. Alongside the final rule, EPA announced new funding ($1 billion) to help states and territories implement PFAS testing and treatment at public water systems and to help owners of private wells address PFAS contamination.

But what is PFAS, how prevalent is it, and what communities are most at risk?

Join KETOS’ Ermias Leggesse (Chief Scientist, Research and Development), Ganesh Hegde (Director, Data Science & AI Strategy) and Meena Sankaran (Founder, CEO) as they take a deep dive into PFAS, get technical about forever chemicals, and discuss:

  • What forever chemicals are
  • How the EPA plans to tackle PFAS management in drinking water
  • What utilities can do to prepare for a future of PFAS management, removal, and compliance
