These \u2018forever chemicals\u2019 were identified as PFOA (<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">perfluorooctanoic acid) <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and PFOS (<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">perfluorooctane sulfonate), which were commonly found in the foam which firefighters use to put out fires<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The forever chemicals were identified through routine testing and were traced back to the Valley Utilities Water Company.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In response to the contaminated water, the U.S.Air Force has been distributing water bottles to residents and business owners who were affected from the Luke Air Force Base. Nearly 6,000 people living in the area were notified by officials that their water is not safe to drink. Residents are able to use this letter to pick up water bottles and sign up for water delivery at a local distribution center. Some residents have questioned how long the chemicals have been affecting their water, and if this could be the cause of some of their health problems.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Air Force is going to continue water testing in a one mile radius to help them learn more about the severity and spread of the chemicals. They will continue to use bottled water to tide the community over while a civil engineer works on plans to install a new filtrations system by April.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Air Force distributes water bottles to residents affected by contaminated water. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":3602,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3601","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-enpress-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
