Mandating Reports on Airport Transition to PFAS-Free Firefighting Foam.
This law requires the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to regularly report on the progress of transitioning U.S. airports to safer, fluorine-free firefighting foam, eliminating toxic PFAS chemicals. The goal is to accelerate the removal of these harmful chemicals, which can contaminate the environment and drinking water near airports. Reports must detail guidance, training schedules, and best practices for equipment decontamination.
Key points
Requires the FAA to submit progress reports every 180 days until the national transition to fluorine-free firefighting foam is complete.
Airports must receive guidance on new foam standards, decontamination best practices for equipment, and timelines for personnel training.
The measure aims to reduce the risk of groundwater and soil contamination by harmful 'forever chemicals' (PFAS) near airport facilities.
