Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, commonly called PFAS, are chemicals used to make nonstick cookware, grease- or water-resistant items, some types of firefighting foam, and other products. When manufacturers and chemical companies contaminate the environment with PFAS, it often finds its way into water sources. This includes both
public drinking water systems and private wells.
These chemicals, known as forever chemicals because of how long it takes them to break down, have been linked to numerous serious, life-threatening health conditions. The list includes several types of cancer.
Recognizing this threat to health across the country, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency officially designated these chemicals as hazardous substances in 2024. This designation falls under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), which will allow them to hold the responsible companies accountable for the “substantial danger to public health” they create.
While there are strict standards for PFAS in public water systems, most states and local governments do not regulate private wells. This includes those owned by individuals, small rural communities, and mobile home parks. Instead, these property owners must cover the cost of their own testing and compare the results to public drinking water standards to determine if they need remediation.
Testing for PFAS in a private well is a headache. Because of the cost and difficulty of scheduling the testing, some people opt for adding a water filtration system that could remove some PFAS in their well water. This could include granulated activated carbon filters or reverse osmosis systems. However, testing and full remediation is a better option for those concerned with high levels of PFAS contamination.
Filing a PFAS private well remediation claim might provide for redress of the contaminated sources and help property owners reduce PFAS exposures for themselves, family members, and others.
