Inactive Landfill Initiative: Impact of PFAS & 1,4-Dioxane On Drinking Water Sources

2023-04-27T16:30:00Z 2023-04-27T17:30:00Z Inactive Landfill Initiative: Impact of PFAS & 1,4-Dioxane On Drinking Water Sources

An emerging contaminant investigation in New York State is focused on addressing critical drinking water contamination concerns associated with PFAS compounds and 1,4-dixoane from more than 1,900 inactive landfills. During this session, the presenter will explain a unique ranking system developed to prioritize landfills for site characterization, present data trends in groundwater samples collected at the landfills and in drinking water from downgradient receptors. Additionally, the presenter will discuss challenges overcome during program implementation including agency evolution on PFAS compounds, the scale and concurrent nature of the multifaceted investigation, and management approach to support a statewide emerging contaminant program.

After registering, you will receive an email from "EGLE-Events" with a link for you to use to join the webinar.

Individuals needing language assistance or accommodations for effective participation should contact Joel Roseberry RoseberryJ@Michigan.gov by April 14 to request language, mobility, visual, hearing, translation, and/or other assistance.
