SUMMARY:Northeast Conference on the Science of PFAS: Public Health & the Environment
DESCRIPTION:  \nView the Agenda and Conference Materials\n  \nThe Northeast Waste Management Officials’ Association (NEWMOA) partnered with the New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission (NEIWPCC)\, the Northeast States for Coordinated Air Use Management (NESCAUM)\, the Northeast Recycling Council (NERC)\, and others to organize a regional science conference on PFAS. \nThe goals of the conference were: \n\nEnsure that local\, state\, and federal action to address PFAS contamination is informed by the most current and reliable science\nFacilitate networking and information-sharing among key stakeholders on PFAS topics\nIdentify important gaps in the science and policy to help inform future research\n\nThe Conference involved more than 500 attendees\, including: \n\nLocal\, state\, and federal government officials\nAcademic researchers and students\nConsultants and vendors\nCompanies that use\, make\, or sell products that contain PFAS\nNon-governmental and environmental organizations\n\n

SUMMARY:Wastewater as a Source of PFAS
DESCRIPTION:The webinar was presented for informational purposes. The views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of each of the NEWMOA-member states and and the strategies and technologies discussed should not be considered an endorsement by NEWMOA or its members. \nThe webinar included the following presentations: \nJustin Pimpare\, EPA Region 1 [PDF] presented Using the Pretreatment Program to Identify Sources of PFAS in Wastewater. The presentation provided an overview of potential PFAS industrial user sources identified via annual pretreatment reports. An overview of PFAS monitoring requirements in Massachusetts NPDES permits was also discussed\, as well as other PFAS-related pretreatment initiatives in New England. \nFarshad Ebrahimi\, Temple University [PDF] presented Linking PFAS Partitioning Behavior in Sewage Solids to Solid Characteristics\, Solution Chemistry\, and Treatment Processes. The presentation discussed the impacts of parameters such as protein\, lipid\, organic matter\, ionic strength\, and pH on the PFAS leaching potential from secondary sludge and biosolids. It also examined the relationship to the treatment method\, including activated sludge\, sludge stabilization\, and anaerobic digestion.

SUMMARY:Food Waste Reduction Strategies & Tools for Businesses & Institutions
DESCRIPTION:There are many opportunities for commercial and institutional generators to reduce their food waste. This webinar featured information on available tools and strategies for these generators. The presenters shared case studies highlighting effective approaches as well as lessons they have learned. They also highlighted available tools for measuring food waste generation and tracking progress. \nPresenters included: \n\nCoryanne Mansell\, Center for EcoTechnology [PDF]: “Preventing and Reducing Wasted Food: Success Stories”\nJohn Short\, IV.\, PHOOD [PDF]: “Using AI to Reduce Food Waste: Victories & Challenges”\n\nView the Recorded Webinar.
