Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) continue to present some of the biggest challenges in chemical contamination across the world. States throughout the nation are finding PFAS contamination in a growing number of locations where these persistent chemicals pose a threat to human health and the environment. The Great Lakes PFAS Summit brings together environmental program managers, policy experts, researchers, and contractors from around the world to share new methods of addressing this contamination and present innovative technical solutions developed to address these “forever” chemicals.
Participants from across the globe include local, state, and federal government officials; environmental consultants and vendors; academic researchers and students; industry managing PFAS contamination; and community organizations.
