ABSTRACT

This presentation will review regulations, proposed regulations, new and updated methods, and related environmental monitoring issues within the EPA Office of Groundwater and Drinking Water and the Office of Science and Technology since August 2024, including the 2025 Methods Update Rule, the 2024 rule for PFAS in drinking water, and the draft aquatic water quality criteria for PFAS.  The presentation will also cover press releases from the EPA Administrator that will likely affect water quality monitoring, including changes to the PFAS drinking water rule for PFAS and new wastewater regulations for PFAS.
