Is there funding available for PFAS removal from drinking water?

Yes, funding is available. Until recently, communities whose drinking water became toxic due to PFAS contamination had to use their own money to remove these highly toxic chemicals from their water sources. However, with the help of money from the 3M's $12.5 billion settlement, they can now afford to remove PFAS from drinking water sources more easily.

The historic $12.5 billion settlement of 3M will help communities affected by drinking water with PFAS

Until recently, communities whose drinking water was affected by PFAS contamination had to use their own financial resources to remove these persistent contaminants from their water sources. However, on June 22, 2023, a $12.5 billion settlement was reached with the 3M Company. This historic settlement agreement will resolve the claims of public water systems across the country that have been impacted by actual or threatened contamination of their water systems with PFAS.

The EPA will distribute the funds to communities whose drinking water contains PFAS so these vulnerable people can perform water testing, remediation, and treatment to enjoy clean and safe water. Each community will receive a different amount, depending on the severity of PFAS contamination, so the funds will be allocated on a case-by-case basis. If the drinking water source of your community is contaminated with PFAS, you might be eligible to join the PFAS water contamination lawsuit.
