In December 2023, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released EPA’s PFAS Strategic Roadmap: Second Annual Progress Report, which outlines key accomplishments achieved under its PFAS Strategic Roadmap over the past year across three fronts – to restrict, remediate, and research per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) – all centered on health protections.

Two years into implementation of the Roadmap, the agency reports it is confronting PFAS contamination by “following the science, leveraging all available tools and authorities, holding polluters accountable, and investing historic resources to protect communities.”

“This PFAS Roadmap progress report illustrates EPA’s ongoing commitment to protect people from the harmful effects of forever chemicals,” said EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan. “By combining science-based solutions, historic funding, and impactful regulations, EPA is following through on the vision set out in our Roadmap – to protect people, achieve environmental justice, and improve the lives of hardworking families across America.”
