A law restricting per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances has been set in place in the State of Vermont. The law names three PFAS chemicals to be of concern to children. Governor, Phil Scott, signed this law into effect after gaining approval from both of the houses of Vermont legislature. The law is to be applied on a staggering basis. Manufacturers that are using any PFAS in products sold in Vermont now must report information regarding these chemicals to the Health Department annually.
