Posted Wednesday, March 15, 2023 7:45 pm With the Environmental Protection Agency drafting a new rule that regulates the amount of PFAS, or ‘forever-chemicals,' in public water systems, Thornton, Northglenn and Westminster are looking at their options. The rule, according to a news release from the EPA, would be the first-ever national drinking water standard for six different kinds of PFAS, poly-fluoroalkyl substances. The maximum level for two of those types, PFOS or PFOA, would be 4 parts per trillion.
