Summary

The bill amends the Environmental Protection Act to make PFAS testing a mandatory part of NPDES permits for major facilities. Publicly owned treatment works must regularly sample influent, effluent and biosolids, while other facilities only need effluent testing. Permit applications must include full PFAS data, and land‑application permits for sludge or biosolids cannot be issued without it.
