Our PFAS team has been hard at work parsing the Draft Sewage Sludge Risk Assessment for PFOA and PFOS. This technical bulletin summarizes some key takeaways and what this assessment means for utilities. For questions or more information, please reach out to me or Kyle Thompson, PhD, PE. In the meanwhile, I will search for a version of Severance technology that makes me forget PFAS for a while. 😊
This week, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released its Draft Sewage Sludge Risk Assessment for PFOA and PFOS, offering the agency’s insights into the potential risks associated with PFAS in biosolids. This draft quantifies the potential risks of land application and surface disposal of biosolids on families living on or near areas where biosolids have been applied or disposed. This assessment does not reflect risks to the general population, and while incineration of biosolids was qualitatively considered, risks were not quantified due to lack of data. The EPA’s report and supporting fact sheets provide guidance for wastewater utilities, farmers, and state water agencies. While this risk assessment does not yet set enforceable limits, it's a crucial indication of potential future regulatory direction. The draft is now open for a 60-day public comment period ending March 17, 2025, offering a valuable opportunity for industry professionals, regulators, and the public to provide feedback and shape the future of PFAS risk reduction and biosolids management. This technical bulletin from Carollo's PFAS and Biosolids experts summarizes key findings of the risk assessment and what it means for utilities.

PFAS regulations are one of the most pressing topics in the water industry, and the conversation is clearly resonating. In fact, WaterWorld Magazine recently named the Talking Under Water podcast episode "What do the new PFAS MCLs mean for the water industry?" as their most-listened-to episode of 2024. This episode features insights from four industry leaders, including Carollo’s national PFAS lead Kyle Thompson, PhD, PE. The discussion dives into the EPA’s historic announcement of Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) for six PFAS contaminants—the first new MCLs in over 20 years—and what this means for water professionals. We’re thrilled to see this critical conversation recognized and proud of Kyle’s contributions to advancing understanding of PFAS challenges and solutions.

Coastal communities like the Florida Keys are at the forefront of the fight against climate change and extreme weather. A recent article in the Water Desalination Report highlights how a new seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) facility on Stock Island, Florida is leading the way with advanced technology and climate-ready engineering. The facility is built to endure Category 5 hurricanes, flooding, and rising sea levels. Its elevated infrastructure, durable materials, and backup power generators ensure uninterrupted operation even in extreme conditions. Additionally, its smaller feedwater pumps and energy recovery devices improve efficiency by significantly reducing energy consumption while doubling the production capacity of its predecessor. This state-of-the-art project provides a sustainable and reliable water supply for the Florida Keys, setting a new standard for resilient water infrastructure in coastal communities.

San Francisco’s Southeast Treatment Plant (SEP) is undergoing a $718-million headworks upgrade as part of a $3-billion investment in the city’s wastewater system. Featured in Engineering News-Record California, the project addresses urban infrastructure challenges with innovative vertical construction and advanced engineering solutions. Engineered to handle 250 million gallons per day, the facility is designed to withstand earthquakes and sea-level rise, while improving efficiency and grit removal. Despite a tight 31,500-square-foot footprint, Carollo’s creative planning and vertical design maximized space, reduced odors, and earned an Envision Gold award for sustainability.
