The EPA and HHS recently announced the draft Sixth Contaminant Candidate List (CCL6) for public review. This marks the first federal recognition of microplastics and pharmaceuticals as priority contaminants in drinking water and initiates a regulatory evaluation process that may lead to future enforceable standards. While scientific uncertainties and challenges remain in measurement and toxicological data, the draft CCL6 announcement signals increased federal scrutiny and highlights the need for environmental professionals to prepare for expanded monitoring and compliance efforts.
Geothermal energy is an emerging national priority as the U.S. looks for reliable, clean energy solutions that strengthen the grid and support long‑term infrastructure needs. With the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) ramping up investment in next‑generation geothermal technologies, new funding and opportunities are opening for organizations capable of evaluating and delivering complex, ground‑sourced systems. PHE’s experience with geothermal concepts across federal sites offers a practical perspective on how this resource is being assessed and applied in diverse settings.
