From John Oliver to CNN to the Wall Street Journal, everyone seems to be talking about PFAS. PFAS are a family of man-made chemicals that have been used in manufacturing everything from apparel to cosmetics to food packaging. Why should CRE developers care about PFAS, also called “forever chemicals”? Because any facility that has used or intends to use PFAS – including many industrial properties – will need to comply with existing and imminent federal and state PFAS regulations. Knowledge of proper remediation and filtration measures will become crucial to any industrial development site where PFAS are, or will be, present. In this webinar, CRE developers will learn what to do if a property contains legacy PFAS and how to get ahead of the problem, including a discussion of design and filtration techniques implemented by manufacturers who have eliminated their liability exposure altogether.
