Five Texas farmers and ranchers are suing EPA over its failure to limit “forever chemicals” in sludge, a problem that they say has killed their animals, jeopardized their health and devalued their land.
“EPA is avoiding its long-standing legal responsibility to protect our health and environment from PFAS in biosolids,” said Kyla Bennett, science policy director for the group representing the farmers and ranchers, Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER).
