Massachusetts enacts firefighter gear PFAS ban with 2027 sales prohibition
Governor Maura Healey signed legislation requiring the removal of PFAS from firefighter protective gear. The law bans the sale of bunker gear containing intentionally added PFAS effective January 2027, and requires warning labels on firefighting gear beginning in 2025 to inform firefighters about PFAS content. Massachusetts becomes one of only two states with such comprehensive PFAS protection for firefighters, addressing a significant occupational health concern for fire services personnel.
CARB Publishes 2026 State Implementation Plan Revisions for Extreme Ozone Nonattainment
CARB published the 2026 State Implementation Plan (SIP) Revisions for California Extreme Ozone Nonattainment Areas.

Stockholm Convention POPRC-22 meeting details published (21–25 September 2026, Rome) including revised draft risk profile item for PBDD/Fs and mixed PBDD/PCDD/Fs
The Stockholm Convention Secretariat published the official schedule and key agenda focus for the 22nd meeting of the Persistent Organic Pollutants Review Committee (POPRC-22), to be held 21–25 September 2026 in Rome, Italy (FAO HQ). The posted overview highlights that POPRC will consider the revised draft risk profile for polybrominated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PBDD/Fs) and mixed polybrominated/chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans, including requests for additional Annex E information. This is relevant to regulatory horizon-scanning because POPRC outcomes can advance candidate chemicals through the Article 8 process toward possible future listing decisions by the COP.
POPRC-22 scheduled for 21–25 September 2026 in Rome; revised draft risk profile for PBDD/Fs and mixed PBDD/PCDD/Fs to be considered
The Stockholm Convention Secretariat meeting page indicates that POPRC-22 is scheduled in Rome, Italy (21–25 September 2026) and will consider a revised draft risk profile for polybrominated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PBDD/Fs) and mixed polybrominated/chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (mixed PBDD/PCDD/Fs). The page also notes POPRC-21 deferred its decision and invited additional Annex E information. For compliance monitoring, this is a process signal that these substances remain under active evaluation and could lead to future listing recommendations to the COP.
BIS implements EAR export controls on silencers and sound suppressors
BIS is transferring jurisdiction over certain sound suppressors from the State Department's U.S. Munitions List (USML) to the Commerce Control List (CCL) under the EAR. Sound suppressors will be added under new ECCN paragraphs 0A501.f (suppressors for rifles and pistols) and 0A502.f (suppressors for shotguns). License applications will be reviewed case-by-case. License exceptions available for firearms (LVS, BAG, TMP) will also be available for suppressors. License Exception TMP is revised to allow firearms and related items to be exported as 'tools of trade.' Partial provisions effective July 23, 2026; full rule effective November 20, 2026. Comments due August 24, 2026.
