PFAS Resource Center

PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are considered an “emerging contaminant” for environmental due diligence per ASTM E1527-21. Some states already regulate PFAS as hazardous substances while the Federal government evaluates a next step. To address this uncertainty, LightBox has assembled the following resources to help you understand PFAS risks and factors to consider in your due diligence practice.
