CL:AIRE is excited to announce the publication of 13 PFAS Site Profiles that were originally developed by Jacobs as part of the Environment Agency PFAS Risk Screening Project. The profiles represent an understanding of PFAS uses and occurrences from specific industry sectors at the time of writing.
The PFAS Site Profiles are hosted on CL:AIRE’s PFAS webpage (https://claire.co.uk/pfas) which is a compilation of information relevant to the understanding and management of PFAS.
The PFAS Site Profiles address the following 11 industry sectors:
- PFAS SP01 - Civil and Military Airfields and Airports
- PFAS SP02 - Control of Major Accident Hazards (COMAH) Regulated Sites
- PFAS SP03 - Fire-fighting Grounds and Fire Stations
- PFAS SP04 - Landfills
- PFAS SP05 - Metal Manufacturing and Finishing
- PFAS SP06 - Military Bases (other than Air Transport Sites)
- PFAS SP07 - Oil and Gas Industry (onshore exploration and extraction operations)
- PFAS SP08 - Paper and Cardboard Manufacturing
- PFAS SP09 - Refineries and Fuel Sites
- PFAS SP10 - Textiles, Upholstery, Leather, Apparel and Carpets (TULAC) Manufacturing
- PFAS SP11 - Waste Water Treatment Works
Two additional site profiles which do not relate directly to a particular site type have been developed for the following subject areas, which have potential applications within many different site types:
- PFAS SP12 - Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF)
- PFAS SP13 - Fire Suppression Systems
