CFA recommends that adequate resources are allocated by the federal government to develop accessible laboratory methodologies to effectively detect PFAS, and to develop risk assessments to understand the impacts of PFAS in biosolids applied as fertilizers. CFA also recommends the implementation of standards for source control of PFAS in the wastewater stream, in order to limit the presence of PFAS in the environment, including in biosolids.
