EspañolThirsty to know more about PFAS regulations in your state?
State drinking water, surface water, and groundwater regulations are now all in one place—through an easy-to-use, interactive map.
Regulations on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) vary by state and continue to evolve. Integral Consulting first developed a map on drinking water regulations in November 2021—now you can see Integral’s latest update, which adds groundwater and surface water regulatory criteria.
Integral’s map tracks current and pending enforceable and non-enforceable PFAS regulations on drinking water, surface water, and groundwater. The goal is to provide an easy-to-use PFAS regulatory resource that is current, complete, and loaded with helpful references. The updated map incorporates even more of the great features requested by early users. Click on the map to find them.
“This tool provides all those interested in PFAS regulations with a quick, accurate, and comprehensive look at developments across the country,” says Integral Managing Principal Avram Frankel, P.E. A consulting engineer and testifying expert, Mr. Frankel has more than 30 years of experience in site remediation, aquifer restoration, and groundwater treatment. He has presented webinars on PFAS remediation and environmental issues with Regenesis and with the National Groundwater Association, and has served on expert panels related to PFAS.
Map Methods
Integral developed the map as part of its research to compose accurate and current information on state regulation of PFAS. The primary sources were state government websites, publications, and communications. The team conducted a two-party quality assurance/quality control check to ensure the accuracy of the information. To our knowledge, this is the most complete compilation of publicly available PFAS water regulatory criteria. Feel free to reference them, as needed.
Avram Frankel and Logan Uselman led Integral’s PFAS regulation map team. Integral also will be releasing map updates with other PFAS regulations in the coming months.
