PFAS in Surface Soil Study

We advanced the science of PFAS by conducting a self-funded study of background concentrations of PFAS in surface soils. We collected and tested 100 shallow soil samples from undeveloped areas across Massachusetts. The resulting data better informs the background occurrence of PFAS in soil, helping stakeholders identify and address direct sources of PFAS contamination.

PFAS in Rainwater Study

To advance our understanding of the processes contributing to background levels of PFAS, Woodard & Curran employees across Massachusetts collected rainwater samples and coordinated laboratory testing for PFAS concentrations. The results illuminate the processes of uptake and partitioning of PFAS into the atmosphere and subsequent return to the earth as rainfall.
