  • Engage effectively: craft influential comments, prepare for hearings, and navigate the public record.
  • Communicate risk credibly: inform the public during extensions to maintain trust and reduce exposure now.

Who is this for? Water system leaders and staff, regulators, policy advisors, public health professionals, and community advocates seeking practical clarity on PFAS rulemaking and compliance strategy.
