Marsh McLennan Agency’s business insurance team contributes an article to The Insurer

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and most state and local regulatory agencies are implementing new environmental compliance, reporting, and corrective action for using materials containing per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). These new rules affect essentially all business sectors in the U.S. and abroad that are involved in the manufacturing or importing of products that contain PFAS for commercial purposes.
