The ubiquitous nature of PFAS coupled with newly released regulations at national and state levels are reshaping groundwater supply planning. With regulatory deadlines looming (currently set as reporting by 2027 and compliance by 2029), INTERA developed a tool to support utilities with more cost-effective strategic planning. This practical tool that will be presented during the webinar assists water utilities to better navigate PFAS risks, optimize infrastructure investments, and minimize long-term costs. Attendees will gain insights into how leveraging existing data and implementing other available tools can support more informed decision-making for well siting, source management, and treatment strategies.

Attendees will learn about:

• PFAS risk management strategies for groundwater supply projects

• Potential PFAS source identification strategies that assist in defining threats to water systems

• Prioritization strategies for well-siting to reduce treatment costs

• Insights into avoiding costly PFAS-related mistakes
