'Te veel PFAS in drinkwater in regio'

In het Rijnmondgebied, inclusief gemeenten als Den Haag, Rotterdam, Westland en Schiedam, overschrijden de PFAS-concentraties in het drinkwater de door het RIVM aanbevolen grenswaarde van 4,4 nanogram per liter. Greenpeace rapporteert deze bevindingen na onderzoek van drinkwaterbedrijven, waarbij in Schiedam bijvoorbeeld 6,9 nanogram PFAS per liter gemeten werd. Hoewel PFAS als schadelijk wordt beschouwd, adviseren het RIVM en Vewin het kraanwater te blijven drinken.
