On-Demand Webinar Details

What are the implications of the Environmental Protection Agency's hazardous substances designation for PFOS and PFOA under CERCLA and the new MCLs for six PFAS compounds? This webinar will discuss the technical landscape and provide recommendations for identifying, delineating, and managing potential liability for PFAS. This includes understanding the history of PFAS usage and the potential impacts of ambient background concentrations. The webinar will also cover the new MCLs, how those might be applied, and the challenges in obtaining high-quality analytical data to meet those levels, as well as the potential for overlapping or conflicting requirements between various PFAS regulatory programs.

Join Exponent multidisciplinary experts Karen Murray, Ph.D., Kristin Robrock, Ph.D., P.E., and Tarek Saba, Ph.D., with moderator Susan Paulsen, Ph.D., P.E., at this webinar to learn more about the evolving PFAS regulatory landscape, why managing liability for these compounds is particularly complex, and strategies for managing regulatory and compliance challenges.
