CO-CHAIR  TARR announced  the first  order of  business would  be                                                               
HOUSE BILL NO.  240, "An Act relating to  pollutants; relating to                                                               
perfluoroalkyl  and polyfluoroalkyl  substances; relating  to the

CO-CHAIR LINCOLN moved  to adopt the committee  substitute for HB
240,  labeled  31-LS1509\M, Marx,  3/6/20,  [Version  M], as  the                                                               
working document.                                                                                                               
                                                                                                                                
CO-CHAIR TARR objected for discussion purposes.                                                                                 
                                                                                                                                
REPRESENTATIVE  HANNAN explained  the  committee substitute  (CS)                                                               
for HB  240 is  a bill  to address  drinking water  standards for                                                               
water  that   has  been  exposed  to   seven  perfluoroalkyl  and                                                               
polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS)  chemicals.   In Alaska, PFAS  exposure is                                                               
mostly  linked  to  firefighting  foam  that  has  been  used  at                                                               
airports and  in the  the oil  and gas industry.   She  said PFAS                                                               
chemicals can suppress  fire in high intensity fires,  such as an                                                               
oil field  fire, and  also do  not decompose,  thus are  known as                                                               
forever  chemicals; these  characteristics allow  PFAS to  starve                                                               
out the oxygen  in fire but linger in water  in perpetuity.  Over                                                               
the past  40 years, PFAS have  been linked to low  birth weights,                                                               
thyroid disease and cancer; testing  has shown PFAS contamination                                                               
is  in  the  water  table   of  many  Alaska  communities.    The                                                               
Department of Environmental Conservation  (DEC) has declared PFAS                                                               
are hazardous substances and HB  240 establishes the standards by                                                               
which PFAS  would be  regulated; currently,  DEC is  deferring to                                                               
levels  set by  the U.S.  Environmental Protection  Agency (EPA);                                                               
however, EPA  levels do not keep  Alaska's water safe.   The bill                                                               
incorporates  standards developed  by  the  Michigan PFAS  Action                                                               
Response  Team (MPART)  which has  researched PFAS  contamination                                                               
from industry and firefighting foam.   The bill would ensure that                                                               
once a community  is contaminated, the polluter would  pay for an                                                               
alternative source  of drinking water, such  as alternative water                                                               
systems,  extending existing  water  systems,  or new  filtration                                                               
systems; in  addition, the polluter  would have to pay  for three                                                               
years   of   voluntary   blood   testing   for   those   exposed.                                                               
Representative Hannan said  HB 240 would stop the use  of PFAS in                                                               
Alaska, with certain exceptions for  federal agencies and for use                                                               
by the oil and gas industry  as a firefighting foam.  Further, HB
240 holds the  party responsible for igniting a  fire also liable                                                               
for the use  of PFAS firefighting foam, not  the fire department.                                                               
Finally, the  bill requires DEC to  develop a plan to  dispose of                                                               
PFAS  firefighting  foam  and  equipment at  no  cost  to  Alaska                                                               
communities.                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                
1:13:14 PM                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                
REPRESENTATIVE RAUSCHER questioned why  the levels established by                                                               
EPA are insufficient.                                                                                                           
                                                                                                                                
REPRESENTATIVE HANNAN  said EPA uses  standards that do  not meet                                                               
safe standards for drinking water,  which will be fully explained                                                               
by  forthcoming  expert  testimony.     In  further  response  to                                                               
Representative  Rauscher, she  said a  fire department  that uses                                                               
PFAS foam to respond to an  oil- and gas-fueled fire would not be                                                               
liable for its use; however,  a fire department testing PFAS foam                                                               
would be liable for its use.                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                
REPRESENTATIVE  SPOHNHOLZ  asked  why  the  sponsor  incorporated                                                               
levels established by MPART instead of EPA.                                                                                     
                                                                                                                                
REPRESENTATIVE HANNAN  said the seven compounds  addressed by the

and conclusive data linking said compounds to disease causation.                                                                
                                                                                                                                
REPRESENTATIVE   SPOHNHOLZ   restated   her   interest   in   the

TIMOTHY CLARK,  Staff, Representative  Sara Hannan,  Alaska State                                                               
Legislature, on  behalf of Representative  Hannan, sponsor  of HB
240, informed  the committee MPART  assembled a working  group of

ROBERT  BILOTT, attorney,  Taft  Stettinius  and Hollister,  gave                                                               
brief  background information.   Through  a legal  case involving                                                               
dead cattle in  West Virginia that were exposed  to chemicals, he                                                               
said  he  learned  about  the existence  of  PFAS  chemicals,  in                                                               
particular, perfluorooctanoic  acid (PFOA), that was  used in the                                                               
manufacture  of  Teflon.    The   class  of  PFAS  chemicals  are                                                               
synthetic and when  found in water, soil, and blood,  they can be                                                               
traced to their source of  manufacture.  After litigation in West                                                               
Virginia and  Ohio, it  is now known  that decades  of toxicology                                                               
studies and  research show what  the chemicals were and  how they                                                               
behaved in the  environment and in humans.  Mr.  Bilott said PFAS                                                               
are  chemicals that  are persistent  in the  environment, in  the

the  world.   Also  made  clear in  the  research  was that  PFAS                                                               
chemicals  are toxic,  persistent, bio-accumulative,  and present                                                               
serious threats to public health.

MR. BILOTT said in 2001,  he provided the research information to                                                               
EPA and  requested EPA set  appropriate drinking  water standards                                                               
and  safety   guidelines.    When   the  case  was   settled,  an                                                               
independent panel  of scientists was  selected to study  what the                                                               
chemical  would do  to people  drinking  it in  their water  over                                                               
time.   The study looked at  a group of people  drinking 50 parts

human health  study involving 69,000  participants.   After seven                                                               
years,  the  panel  linked  PFOA  with  six  different  diseases:                                                               
kidney  cancer, testicular  cancer,  ulcerative colitis,  thyroid                                                               
disease,  pre?clampsia,  and high  cholesterol.    In 2012,  with                                                               
additional  information and  nationwide use  of PFOA  in consumer                                                               
products, EPA  was again asked  to provide a safe  drinking water                                                               
standard, and  EPA began to  require PFAS/PFOA testing  in public                                                               
water  supplies.   In 2013/2014,  data began  to show  - and  the                                                               
outcome  of  three  lawsuits  against   DuPont  De  Nemours  Inc.                                                               
(DuPont),  proved -  that DuPont  caused plaintiffs'  cancer, and                                                               
DuPont had  acted with conscious  disregard of the risk  from the                                                               
chemicals.   Mr. Bilott said  the data also showed  the chemicals                                                               
were  present in  water across  the  country; in  fact, in  2016,                                                               
communities  began to  ask for  the  safe level  of PFAS/PFOA  in                                                               
water and EPA issued a guideline of 70 parts per trillion.                                                                      
                                                                                                                                
1:45:18 PM                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                
MR.  BILOTT stressed  the  EPA guideline  is  not an  enforceable                                                               
standard, so communities and water  providers that find PFAS/PFOA                                                               
levels  in  their  water  supplies  are  incurring  the  cost  of                                                               
remediation because it is not  an official government regulation.                                                               
In 2009,  EPA issued its  first action  plan and in  2019 another                                                               
action plan,  to move forward,  was issued,  but there is  not an                                                               
enforceable  federal  standard, thus  states  are  forced to  set                                                               
enforceable standards  to protect their  residents.  He  noted as                                                               
more research  is released, the  concern is focused  on long-term                                                               
exposure;  in fact,  in  1988, DuPont  set  an internal  drinking                                                               
water standard for  PFAS at the detection level  and he cautioned                                                               
safe levels  will continue to  be lowered.   In Michigan,  and at

Department  of Health  and Human  Services,  standard levels  are                                                               
much lower  than issued by  EPA.  Mr. Bilott  concluded PFAS/PFOA                                                               
are chemicals  that impact everyone, and  more contaminated water                                                               
will be  found, therefore, communities  need a way to  recoup the

REPRESENTATIVE  TUCK asked  whether  PFAS/PFOA  chemicals can  be

MR. BILOTT said  the chemicals have a long half-life  and stay in

DuPont was  for the community.   DuPont provided the  funding for

Coalition  was   formed  about  18  months   ago  after  Gustavus
