This bill amends the Safe Drinking Water Act by requiring the Environmental Protection Agency to publish a maximum contaminant level goal and promulgate a national primary drinking water regulation for perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) within two years. (PFCs are manufactured compounds that are used in an array of consumer products and that accumulate in human blood.)
