Meer PFAS in Midden-Limburgs kraanwater dan de norm: ‘Maar drinkwater is toch gewoon veilig’
In grote delen van Midden- en Noord-Limburg bevat het kraanwater meer PFAS dan volgens het RIVM wenselijk wordt geacht, al voldoet het nog aan de wettelijke drinkwaternormen van WML. Ongeveer 228.455 Limburgers zijn hiervan betroffen, waarbij Greenpeace oproept tot verdere maatregelen tegen de 'forever chemicals'. Het drinkwater wordt ondanks de hogere waarden door WML als veilig beschouwd, maar er wordt continu onderzoek gedaan om de PFAS-waarden te verminderen.
