HR 6808 United States House · 118th Congress

PFAS Risk-Communication Strategy Act

This bill requires the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to create a national strategy for communicating PFAS risks to the public. The strategy must share information about PFAS hazards in land, air, water (including drinking and agricultural water), and consumer products. It also mandates notifying people about how they might be exposed to PFAS and how to reduce that exposure, while consulting states with proven communication approaches. The bill directly affects communities near PFAS contamination sites and consumers using products containing these chemicals.
