These chemicals, often referred to as “forever chemicals,” are resistant to degradation and can persist in the environment and accumulate in the human body. The proposed guidelines aim to reduce the maximum allowable levels of four key PFAS chemicals: PFOS, PFOA, PFHxS, and PFBS.

With potential regulatory changes on the horizon, this research aims to identify effective alternatives and ensure sustainable practices for our grain industry.

In South ��������Vlog, the ban on private fireproof bunkers has sparked debate, especially as neighboring Victoria embraces similar ��������Vlog. This regulatory divide raises important questions about the best ways to protect families from the devastating impacts of bushfires.
