Garrison Announcement on PFAS Soil Sampling
SEPT 25 UPDATE:
In July 2019, Secretary Mark Esper stood up a task force to provide strategic leadership and direction to ensure a coordinated, aggressive, and holistic approach on DoD-wide installations to proactively address Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) issues. PFAS are found in everyday consumer items – from nonstick cookware to water-resistant clothing. They are also found in certain firefighting foam known as aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF). DoD installations no longer use AFFF for land-based testing and training.
As part of DoD's preventative approach to addressing PFAS, there will be soil and water sampling at various locations across Fort Belvoir starting this Sunday, 27 September and running through Wednesday, 30 September. The sampling is designed to determine if there are any traces of PFAS. This sampling will come with some noise due to the use of drilling equipment, but should be complete in a reasonable amount of time. Of all the locations, there is only one in the housing area (Lewis Village). It is currently planned to occur on Sunday, 27 September between approximately 1500-1800 hours.
This sampling is part of a Department of Defense-wide installations program focus on ensuring the health and safety of our Service members, their families, and our workforce.
