Summary: The commenter opposes the rescission of regulatory protections for PFAS substances, arguing that rolling back these regulations endangers public health and drinking water. They highlight the negative impacts of PFAS contamination on Maine's farming community and call on the agency to prioritize public safety over corporate interests.
Clean, drinking water is a necessity to good health!! The more chemicals in it the more dangerous it becomes to our body.
Rolling back the current protections for SAFE, CLEAN drinking water is UNACCEPTABLE!!! Corporations, Industry, and others that contaminate water resources are in fact too greedy to do what is right to make sure that the water they use is returned to the ground SAFE! It is YOUR job to PROTECT the Public from polluters!! Here in Maine, we know what PFAS can do!!! Farmers are sick from the spreading of PFAS laced soil on their fields. It is even found in some cow's milk due to the hay from those fields. How in good conscience can you RELAX regulations that help to PROTECT us??? WHY do you continue to pander to Corporations and Industry? PLEASE do YOUR job and PROTECT the Public!
