industrial discharges of PFAS, and
implement industrial pretreatment
requirements, where appropriate. Doing
so will help reduce downstream PFAS
contamination and lower the
concentration of PFOA and PFOS in
sewage sludge (see Section C of the
EPA’s December 2022 memorandum

B. Related Actions
The EPA is planning to conduct the
next National Sewage Sludge Survey
(NSSS) in collaboration with the
publicly owned treatment works
(POTW) Influent PFAS Study (see
https://www.epa.gov/biosolids/sewagesludge-surveys). This NSSS will focus
on obtaining current national
occurrence and concentration data on
PFAS in sewage sludge. The data
generated by the NSSS will help inform
future risk assessments and risk
management actions for sewage sludge.
Additionally, the EPA continues to
evaluate opportunities to limit PFAS
discharges from multiple industrial
categories through the Effluent
Guidelines Program. The specific
actions include revising the Organic
Chemicals, Plastics, and Synthetic
Fibers Effluent Limitations Guidelines
(ELGs) to address wastewater discharge
from PFAS manufacturing facilities;
revising the Metal Finishing and
Electroplating ELGs to address
wastewater discharge from metal
finishing and electroplating operations
focusing on facilities using PFAS-based
fume suppressants and wetting agents;
and revising the Landfills ELGs to
address PFAS discharges from landfill
leachate. The upcoming POTW Influent
PFAS Study will also help the agency
prioritize industrial point source
categories for future study and, as
appropriate, ELGs (see https://
www.epa.gov/eg/study-pfas-influentpotws).
C. Final Risk Assessment and Potential
Future Actions
After the public comment period has
closed, the EPA will consider the
comments received, revise the draft risk
assessment as appropriate, and prepare
a final risk assessment. The EPA will
announce the availability of the final
risk assessment in the Federal Register.
If the final risk assessment indicates that
there are risks above acceptable
thresholds when using or disposing of
sewage sludge, the EPA expects to
propose a regulation under CWA section

405 to manage PFOA and/or PFOS in
sewage sludge to protect public health
and the environment. The EPA may also
consider developing regulations under
other statutory authorities to further
reduce PFAS discharged to WWTPs.
During the risk management
deliberation process, the results of the
final risk assessment may be integrated
with other considerations, such as
economic costs and treatment
feasibility, to reach decisions regarding
the need for and practicability of
implementing various risk reduction
activities. If the EPA proposes
regulatory standards for PFOA and/or
PFOS in sewage sludge, the public will
have an opportunity to provide
comment.
