B&C speakers will describe PFAS reporting frameworks at the federal and state level, as well as state notification, restriction, and prohibition requirements.
WASHINGTON, DC, UNITED STATES, March 5, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Bergeson & Campbell, P.C. (B&C®) is pleased to present “PFAS in consumer products: a multi-state compliance guide,” on April 14, 2026, from 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. (EDT). This complimentary Lexology Masterclass will analyze per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances’ (PFAS) reporting frameworks at the federal and state level, as well as state notification, restriction, and prohibition requirements.
PFAS complexity as a class of chemicals may be matched only by the intricacy of emerging federal and state PFAS regulations. At the federal level, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has taken steps to prevent companies from resuming uses of PFAS that have been abandoned. EPA has twice postponed its reporting rule and is preparing to reopen aspects of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) reporting rule for public comment. While EPA will seek historical data on products containing PFAS, states, including Minnesota and Connecticut, are implementing reporting requirements now on products containing intentionally added PFAS to meet July 1, 2026, deadlines. Maine, Minnesota, and New Mexico will ban PFAS in almost all products in 2032 unless the product has a currently unavoidable use (CUU) determination, yet only Maine has completed its CUU rulemaking.
In comparing these frameworks and requirements, webinar participants will:
– Appreciate the complexity of PFAS and the diversity of regulatory approaches;
– Understand jurisdictional divergence in PFAS regulation to better navigate emerging PFAS initiatives;
– Anticipate regulatory outcomes of emerging PFAS initiatives;
– Integrate more holistically divergent governance standards to anticipate and avoid market access limitations; and
– Advise better and more confidently on the legal and commercial issues flowing from these many initiatives.
