AGC Chemicals Europe is releasing large quantities of a “forever chemical” into the River Wyre in Lancashire each year, and is not breaking any rules.
The Environment Agency has released its evaluation of a PFAS known as EEA-NH4 that was found in the effluent, and said it was “very persistent” and “mobile” in the environment, as well as “toxic”.
