SUMMARY:PFAS & Biosolids: Northern Neck Community Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Photo Credit: Jan Kopřiva from Pexels\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin Potomac Riverkeeper Network and Friends of the Rappahannock for a presentation with Maine Representative Bill Pluecker on PFAS and Biosolids. \n\n\n\nRepresentative Bill Pluecker is an organic farmer and a leader in PFAS & Biosolids legislation in Maine. A brief presentation will be followed by an audience Q&A. \n\n\n\n\n\nBiosolids\, the treated sewage sludge produced by wastewater treatment plants\, are applied to farmland across the country. Farmers use biosolids because they’re cheaper than traditional fertilizer and are marketed as safe and sustainable. What farmers aren’t told is that biosolids can contain harmful levels of PFAS\, a “Forever Chemical” that is toxic to humans and can migrate from soil into crops\, rivers and well water. \n\n\n\nDuring this presentation we will discuss how PFAS enter the environment\, why biosolids are a growing concern nationwide\, and what farmers\, landowners\, and residents have a right to know about biosolids and the “forever chemicals” in them. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. \n\n\n\n\nLOCATIONRappahannock Community College – Warsaw Lecture Hall52 Campus Drive Warsaw\, VA 22572 \n\n\n\n\nREGISTRATION NOT REQUIRED
