PFAS Update: Maine Issues Long-Awaited PFAS In Consumer Products Implementation Rule

In July 2021, Maine enacted a law that requires the disclosure of any product that contains intentionally added PFAS, and eventually prohibits the sale and distribution of any product that contains intentionally added PFAS in the state (the “Law”).  In response to feedback from industry groups and impacted entities the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (“MDEP” or “the department”) issued a proposed rule on February 14, 2023 (the “Rule”) designed to clarify the scope and implementation of the Law. MDEP has scheduled a public hearing in Augusta, Maine, on April 20, 2023, and interested parties must submit public comments by May 19, 2023.  If your business is impacted by the proposed rule, you should consider participating in the rulemaking process.
