This week on 2BInformed, Erik Baptist and Charlotte Bertrand focus on the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) newly released “PFAS Strategic Roadmap” and the EPA’s regulations on Persistent, Bioaccumulative, and Toxic (PBT) chemicals under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Erik and Charlotte discuss how the new PFAS Strategic Roadmap came to be and how the three R’s – Research, Restrict, and Remediate – will impact the use of PFAS chemicals moving forward.
