2015: Fiskville (Vicoria) PFAS in soil and sheep
“A firefighting training centre in Fiskville, Victoria, was shut down in 2015 when it became the first PFAS-contaminated site to be publicly identified, Lloyd-Smith said.
“A farmer adjacent to the site was forced to cease selling animal produce after PFAS was found in the soil and sheep,” Lloyd-Smith said.
“High levels were also found in the farmer’s blood and that of his children.”
