摘要
When scientists discovered three per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) at worrisome levels in the drinking water provided to about 450 people in rural Maysville, North Carolina, town officials sprang into action. It was 2019, and at the time, there were no guidelines or federal limits for PFAS in drinking water. Still, town leaders immediately shut down the water plant and began purchasing water from a facility in neighboring Jones County. © 2024 American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
