Abstract: This information collection addresses the requirements for completing exposure assessments (EAs) for PFAS authorized in Section 8006 of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2018. ATSDR/NCEH will use statistical methods to recruit respondents at a minimum of eight current or former domestic military installations known to have PFAS contamination in water sources. ATSDR will collect biological and environmental samples to evaluate exposure.
