Delaware Unveils Comprehensive Plan to Combat Forever Chemicals and Contaminants
Delaware has introduced a significant strategy to address contaminants of emerging concern, including PFAS, microplastics, pharmaceuticals, and pesticides. The plan, unveiled in 2026, focuses on protecting public health, identifying sources, reducing exposure, engaging communities, improving communication, and preparing for emergencies. The state has been working on this issue since 2016, with a 2021 settlement providing funds for cleanups, community grants, and free private well tests starting in 2023. The plan is adaptable to new scientific findings and will be tracked through annual progress reports.
