PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
MassDEP is offering private well owners an opportunity to receive free testing for PFAS compounds in communities where 60% or more of the consumers use private wells (see list below).
PFAS are a family of man-made chemicals found in a wide range of consumer products, such as non-stick cookware and stain- and water-resistant materials. Negative effects of PFAS on human health and development are a growing concern.
