    "The Maine Center for Disease Control is recommending that people limit consuming fish from four new bodies of water due to #PFASContamination.

    "The new advisories apply to game fish caught in #LovejoyPond in #AlbionME, the #SebasticookRiver in #BurnhamME and #BentonCollyerBrook in #GrayME, and #AndroscogginLake in #LeedsME and #WayneME.

    "The Maine CDC issued the new guidelines after elevated levels of PFAS, the group of man-made #ForeverChemicals, were detected in fish tissue sampled by the Maine Department of Environmental Protection last year.

    "In the recommendations updated last week, the Maine CDC also expanded its advisories on #AnnabessacookLake in #MonmouthME and #WinthropME, and #MessalonskeeStream in #OaklandME and #WatervilleME.

    "These additions bring the total number of rivers, lakes and streams that have game fish contaminated with unsafe levels of PFAS to 25.

    "For more details on the consumption limits on numbers and species of freshwater fish in each waterbody, check out the Maine CDC website."

  3. It's about f-ing time!!! WTF!

    The #EPA is proposing that '#ForeverChemicals' be considered #hazardous substances
    by Ayana ArchieFeb, 02 2024

    "The Environmental Protection Agency is proposing that nine #PFAS, also known as "forever chemicals," be categorized as hazardous to human health.

    "The EPA signed a proposal Wednesday that would deem the chemicals "hazardous constituents" under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.

    "For the agency to consider a substance a hazardous constituent, it has to be toxic or cause cancer, genetic mutation or the malformations of an embryo. The full list of the nine substances can be found here.

    "The agency cited various studies in which forever chemicals were found to cause a litany of "t#oxic effects" in humans and #animals, including, but not limited to cancer, a decreased response to vaccinations, #HighCholesterol, decrease in #fertility in women, #preeclampsia, #thyroid disorders and #asthma, the EPA said.

    "Short for "per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances," PFAS cover thousands of man-made chemicals. PFAS are often used for manufacturing purposes, such as in #NonstickCookware, #adhesives, #firefighting foam, #turf and more [ex, #SkiWax].

    "PFAS have been called "forever chemicals" because they break down very slowly and can accumulate in people, animals and the environment. Last summer, a study by the U.S. Geological Survey found that the man-made chemicals are present in nearly half the country's tap water supply.

    "The survey tested for 32 types of PFAS, though there are more than 12,000, the USGS said, and they can pose a health threat even at very small amounts.

    "In June, the chemical manufacturer 3M said it would pay about $10 billion in lawsuit settlements to help detoxify water supplies across the country, after plaintiffs claimed the company's firefighting foam and other products were responsible for contaminating #TapWater with PFAS.

    "The proposed rule will be open for #PublicComment once it is uploaded to the Federal Register, under docket number EPA-HQ-OLEM-2023-0278."

  4. Les opérateurs de Marketo revendiquent une attaque contre :

    • 🇺🇸 Gulf Oil (gulfoil.com)

    Gulf Oil is a diverse and growing refined products terminaling, storage, and logistics business and a leading distributor of motor fuels in the United States. We own and operate one of the largest petroleum terminal systems in the Northeast, providing critical infrastructure solutions for the refined products value chain, from when products exit the refinery until they reach the end user.

    Des incohérences ont été relevées :

    • Le logo correspond à « Gulf Union Cooperative Insurance Co. »
    • Le site web ne correspond pas à la description.
