Dept of Climate Change, Energy, Environment & Water
We are inviting feedback on proposed scheduling decisions for managing chemicals that pose a high risk to the environment, including chemicals that have been widely used in firefighting foams.
Consultation on proposed standards to manage three groups of per and poly fluoroalkyl (PFAS) chemicals – PFOA, PFOS and PFHxS – and pentachlorobenzene (PeCB) is open from 21 July 2023.
Feedback will help Australian governments and businesses to better manage the environmental risks of these chemicals.
