Penn State Extension is set to host a webinar on May 29, focusing on the understanding of PFAS, commonly referred to as ‘forever chemicals,’ in private water supplies. This event aims to educate the public about the implications of PFAS contamination and its effects on health and the environment.
In addition to the webinar, there will be six in-person local workshops held across various locations. These workshops will provide participants with detailed information about PFAS, methods for testing water supplies, and guidance on how to mitigate risks associated with these chemicals.
Furthermore, attendees will have the opportunity to participate in free PFAS water testing, allowing them to assess the quality of their private water sources. This initiative is part of a broader effort to increase awareness and understanding of PFAS issues, empowering communities to take action regarding their water safety.
