Receive guidance on tough questions
As public concern over 1,4-dioxane contamination has recently grown, utilities may have questions about this contaminant. With over 20 years of experience in water contamination litigation, we have the experience and insight to help utilities better understand contamination issues.
Key questions we can help answer:
The Next PFAS?
Recognizing the parallels between PFAS and 1,4-dioxane is crucial for anticipating how regulations and public concerns may evolve.
1,4-dioxane:
- 21.92% of systems tested had any detections of
1,4-dioxane - 7.02% of systems tested had detections above
the reference concentration
PFAS:
- 4.02% of systems tested had any detections of PFAS
- 1.32% of systems tested had detections above the reference concentration
Troubling Trend
This testing data depicts a troubling trend for 1,4-dioxane. Given that the findings regarding PFAS concentrations prompted the EPA to take a closer look at regulations and safety measures, the higher prevalence of 1,4-dioxane above its reference concentration could signal a similar regulatory path for this emerging contaminant.
