The data included in the PFAS Analytic Tools have a wide range of location-specific data for 'forever chemical' measurements.
On Thursday, the EPA publicly launched PFAS Analytic Tools, with updates to data sources and additional datasets slated for inclusion in the future. It brings multiple sources of information together in one database with mapping and other functions, allowing the public to see where testing was done and what was detected.
The agency is compiling and integrating a collection of data that can be used to evaluate what is known about per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) manufacture, release, and occurrence in communities. As part of this effort, EPA is integrating data available nationally with other information from states, Tribes, and localities that are testing for PFAS pursuant to their own regulatory or voluntary data collection initiatives. The data included in the PFAS Analytic Tools have a wide range of location-specific data and, in general, are based on national scope, and readily accessible, public information repositories.
