PFAS risk ranking and prioritisation: Fire and Rescue Service
In this Down to Earth webinar, we will present a high-level review and prioritisation of 57 fire station sites. The sites were assessed based on their environmental sensitivity and historical or current use, determining those posing the greatest risk to human health and the environment from identified contaminants, including perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) associated with historical aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) use on the sites.
