A map of the available information for the U.S.-wide PFAS contamination is shown in Figure 3and available at www.ewg.org/interactive-maps/2019_pfas_contamina- tion/map/. Locations were mapped using the best data available from official records, including data provided by tests of public drinking water systems, the Safe Drinking Water Information System, the Department of Defense report âAddressing Perfluorooctane Sulfonate (PFOS) and Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA),â among others. For all water systems with a detection of PFOS, PFOA or another PFAS, a maximum concentration for each PFAS and a maximum total PFAS concentration is displayed.

The latest update of an interactive map by EWG and the Social Science Environmental Health Research Institute, at Northeastern University, documents publicly known pollution from PFAS ⦠PFAS have been used for decades in a variety of industrial and consumer product applications. Data on contaminated water system, industrial and military sites was current as of January 2021. Levels listed are for the range of the total of all PFAS detected at the time of the tests and do not reflect whether a water system is treating the water to reduce levels. The latest update of an interactive map by EWG and the Social Science Environmental Health Research Institute at Northeastern University documents publicly known PFAS pollution ⦠EWG reviews requests on a case-by-case basis and reserves the right to deny permission for any reason, at its sole discretion. The map shows contamination at 117 military sites. The maximum levels listed are from a single point in time and do not reflect whether a water system has changed sources or is treating the water to reduce PFAS levels.

EWGâs and SSEHRIâs work on mapping PFAS will now branch into two distinct projects. This graphic, provided by EWG, shows the year-by-year discovery of contaminated sites since 2001. PFAS, which are detected in the blood of nearly every American, are associated with multiple adverse health effects, including immunotoxicity, cancer and increased cholesterol, as well as developmental and reproductive toxicity. EWG said the samples were taken in the âlikelyâ service area of United Water, a unit of Suez North America.
