The report prepared for WaterNSW by engineering firm Jacobs Group confirmed that the contamination could have occurred as early 1992年,一辆汽油油轮在梅德洛浴室附近的大西部高速公路上坠毁。正如该标头的先前报道的那样,由于工作人员从Blackhheath,Katoomba,Leura和Victoria山冲进来时,人们认为超过400升的PFAS富含泡沫已在现场使用。

The following month, the National Health and Medical Research Council proposed new guidelines that would dramatically slash the level of PFAS allowed in drinking water, but this is not yet in force.

Jon Dee, who convenes the local STOP PFAS action group, said he was该报告不知所措,在调查了八个月之后,该报告留下了未解决的关键问题。 “他们仍然无法告诉我们PFAS水平在自来水中饮用的自来水中有多高。 An eight-month investigation has gone nowhere – I am absolutely flabbergasted.”

This masthead has reported on the health problems of Blue Mountains residents, including Nick A’hern who had levels of PFOS – one of the most notorious PFAS chemicals and the one found in the fire fighting foam – six times above average. A’hern had prostate cancer, his wife bowel cancer and their then 33-year-old son testicular癌症。

dee说他安排了A'Hern测试,私下完成500美元。 Stop PFAS希望政府为居民的测试付费,并正在考虑采取集体诉讼。

表面水平的测试显示,Medlow Dam,Greaves Creek Dam和Adams Creek的PFAS水平显着高于当前的安全饮酒水平。喀斯喀特大坝(仍在向蓝山居民提供饮用水)尤其尤其远高于拟议中的PFO指南。

但是,WaterNSW仅在Medlow Dam上测试了沉积物。 The report says Greaves Creek Dam was not accessible, and that WaterNSW decided sediment collection from the Cascade Dams would risk releasing any the chemicals into the water column, making the situation worse.

The report recommends that both remediation and water treatment could be options, but it notes that treatment for drinking water standard was a matter for Sydney Water.

A Sydney Water spokesperson said in a statement the agency installed a $3.4去年12月,级联水处理厂的百万个临时治疗系统,以降低与拟议指南相符的PFA水平。过滤系统提供的总人口是从维多利亚山到格伦布鲁克的78,000。 EPA被转介给总理办公室。新南威尔士州政府发言人说:“已经与相关机构建立了一个工作组,例如WATERNSW,RFS,FRNSW和EPA,以协调现场调查过程的下一阶段。”
