February 13, 2023
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has granted Connecticut nearly $19 million to address emerging contaminants such as PFAS in the state’s drinking water.
The funding, which amounts to $18,914,000, is a part of President Joe Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. It’ll allocate money to the state in an effort to combat contaminants like Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances, or PFAS, which is more commonly known as firefighting foam.
