PFAS in drinking water

GGD Kennemerland reports that drinking water in the Kennemerland region contains PFAS levels exceeding the guideline values of the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM). Although the amount of PFAS ingested through tap water is small, GGD Kennemerland emphasizes the importance of tackling PFAS at the source to prevent these substances from entering the environment and drinking water.
