Presentation Focus
New information on emerging contaminants may be coming across your desk daily, more than you can digest. Do you know how it applies to you and the environmental liabilities that you manage? In this webinar, we will cut to the chase and answer the question – what do you really need to know about per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) and 1,4-Dioxane? We will answer that governing question without spending undue time on background information or delving too deeply in complex technical information.
Seminar topics include:
• What types of facilities and sites are associated with PFAS and 1,4-Dioxane?
• How do I evaluate the potential presence of PFAS and 1,4-Dioxane?
• Why are there so many different standards?
• When and what media should I sample and which laboratory method(s) should I use?
• What treatment technologies are proven to work, what are their limitations, and what is on the horizon?
The presentation will be followed by a moderated panel discussion and Q&A session.
- Suggested attendees include: EHS project managers, facility managers, and personnel involved with environmental liability management, environmental monitoring, and site remediation. Click here to register today.
