Tampa Bay Water tested the regional drinking water supply for PFAS, alongside its member utilities during EPA\u2019s nationwide study. This helps EPA set regulations for PFAS and it helps Tampa Bay Water determine if treatment is needed, where treatment is needed and how much treatment is needed. Tampa Bay Water and five of its members began testing in July 2023. The City of Tampa began testing in January 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
