Waste Site Cleanup State Funded PFOA and PFOS Sampling Efforts
The Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s (DEP) Waste Cleanup Program conducted a statewide survey of twenty-seven (27) waste cleanup sites that are undergoing state funded cleanup. The purpose of this survey was to gather information regarding whether Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) could be a contaminant of concern at these facilities. These facilities range from former landfills, metal plating facilities, chemical manufactures, electroplaters, and users of various solvents.
