EPA Delays PFAS Wastewater Rule for Platers to 2027
Original: EPA PFAS Wastewater Rule for Platers Slips to 2027
The Environmental Protection Agency has pushed back its PFAS wastewater rule for metal plating facilities to 2027. The rule would set discharge limits for the so-called forever chemicals from electroplating and metal finishing operations. Environmental groups have long pressed for stricter controls on PFAS in industrial wastewater, while industry has sought more compliance time.
Why now: Regulators delayed a key environmental rule affecting PFAS discharges, drawing attention from industry and environmental observers.
