Should you trust it?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The proposal will start the formal process of rolling back parts of the first-ever limits on PFAS in drinking water finalized during former President Joe Biden\u2019s administration. Officials at the time found they increased the risk of cardiovascular disease, certain cancers and babies being born with low birth weight.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The agency is committed to addressing Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in drinking water while following the law and ensuring that regulatory compliance is achievable for drinking water systems, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said.<\/p>\n<h4>Chemours discharged PFAS into rivers in three states<\/h4>\n<p>The settlement determined that facilities Chemours operates in the three states have discharged PFAS into the Ohio River, Cape Fear River and Delaware River, respectively, in violation of permits required by the Clean Water Act and state laws. Chemours also violated legal requirements under the federal Toxic Substances Control Act at all three facilities.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of the alleged violations, people living near the facilities were exposed to illegal PFAS, officials said. PFAS are widely used and found around the world, with scientific studies showing that exposure to some PFAS in the environment may be linked to harmful health effects in humans and animals.<\/p>\n<p>The violations continued for over a decade, the Justice Department said. The facilities were previously owned for many decades by DuPont. The settlement announced Wednesday does not resolve DuPont\u2019s liability for past PFAS violations, officials said.<\/p>\n<p>A federal judge last year ordered Chemours to stop discharging unlawful levels of cancer-causing chemicals into the Ohio River from the company\u2019s Washington Works plant in West Virginia. The pollutants endanger the environment, aquatic life and human health, U.S. District Judge Joseph Goodwin wrote in the August 2025 order.<\/p>\n<p>The West Virginia Rivers Coalition had asked Goodwin to require the company to immediately comply with its permit limits after violating them for more than five years.<\/p>\n<p>DuPont, Chemours and another company, Corteva, agreed to pay New Jersey up to $2 billion last year to settle environmental claims stemming from PFAS. The federal settlement does not affect the state case.<\/p>\n<p>The federal consent decree calls for 14 specific treatment systems to reduce PFAS in wastewater, stormwater and groundwater from the West Virginia plant. Chemours will test drinking water near the West Virginia and New Jersey sites and provide treated or alternative clean water.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=17473\">IRS did better than expected in tax season after slashing staff, except on the phone, watchdog says<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Trump administration reached a multi-state settlement with Chemours Co. over illegal discharges of synthetic \u201cforever chemicals.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":17478,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[43,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17482","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-based-on-facts-either-observed-and-verified-directly-by-the-reporter-or-reported-and-verified-from-knowledgeable-sources","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
