EPA publishes 2026 Interim Guidance on the Destruction and Disposal of PFAS and PFAS‑containing materials

EPA published an updated 2026 version of its Interim Guidance on the destruction and disposal of PFAS and PFAS-containing materials. While non-binding, the guidance is a key compliance reference for organizations managing PFAS wastes/materials (e.g., AFFF, contaminated media, and water-treatment residuals) and discusses available destruction/disposal pathways and evaluation considerations. EPA indicates it will accept comments on the interim guidance (public-comment posture).
