The 27th Special Operations Wing plans to host a PFAS virtual update at 5 p.m. on Nov. 12.
“Wing leadership will update all interested parties on the per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) release incident, as well as ongoing PFAS remediation efforts in coordination with the USAF Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC),” according to a news release from Cannon.
“Cannon’s Restoration Project Manager from AFCEC will be present to provide status updates and answer the public’s PFAS questions.”
The Air Force announced in August it is investigating the release of about 7,000 gallons of water containing PFAS into a “compromised” lined retention pond at Cannon Air Force Base.
The Nov. 12 meeting is open to the public, but attendees must RSVP prior to receive access information.
RSVP by emailing [email protected] no later than 3 p.m. Nov. 5.
The news release stated there will be time at the end of the meeting designated for questions. “All questions will be captured and answered either during the meeting or in the meeting minutes,” the release stated.
