Thanks, Biden!

Also to quote another report:
The EPA is proposing that 'forever chemicals' be considered hazardous substances

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 tap water with PFAS.
