In this webinar we are pleased to have a special presentation from Ned Witte, Attorney at Godfrey & Kahn, S.C. Ned’s presentation will discuss current trends and best practices for performing due diligence to manage PFAS liability risk. He will be joined by Ryan Moore, PFAS Program Manager at REGENESIS, who will discuss proven, low-cost in situ remediation solutions to mitigate risk from PFAS contamination in groundwater.

• A practical assessment of managing PFAS in environmental due diligence
• Key points of consideration in the potential identification of certain PFAS as “hazardous substances” under federal law
• Best practices for consulting and business professionals in this evolving field
• Proven solutions from REGENESIS to mitigate risk from PFAS contamination in groundwater

Attention to the emerging contaminants known as PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) has evolved during the last several years, from awareness and alarm to acceptance and adaptation. As part of this evolving awareness, PFAS have now become a focal point of real property and business transactions, where customary environmental due diligence has included use of the ASTM Phase I Environmental Site Assessment. To the surprise of many, however, the ASTM process does not presently include consideration of PFAS.
