PFAS Task Force Special Edition #1
Ready to Switch Foams What Should We Do Next?
-
Confirm that your new foam is FFF. Have FFF sample tested by an independent lab.
-
Old foam needs to be disposed of by a licensed contractor.
-
If you have foam in on board tanks, the product needs to be re-claimed and the tanks sanitized.
-
A list of disposal and remediation companies have been provided. Please click here to see the list. This list is NOT an endorsement by WSFCA or the Task Force but simply a shortcut to companies that should be further vetted for your needs. Please due diligence and investigate any company and the processes they propose.
-
Reach out to other WSFCA members that have switched to FFF as they have likely used a remediation company.
-
Understand that these are current best practices of this somewhat elusive product. It is possible, probable that best practices may change and other products, processes will come to market.
-
Consider a neighborly or regional approach and not locally stockpiling large quantities of FFF.
