About us

Hot off the press, for those of you who aren't ready for EPA reporting yet, you just got an early Christmas gift... take it as the gift it is and use the extra time to get your data in order! #pfas Assent "...In September 2024, EPA announced a direct final rule and a parallel proposed rule to delay the reporting period for this rule. The reporting period was scheduled to begin on November 12, 2024, but the final rule delays the beginning of the reporting period until July 2025 due to budgetary constraints."
