Your question should be directed to her. Attached are two commercial documents which discuss recent efforts to reduce long-carbon chain PFOAs and PFCAs in AFFF. Note that these documents don't necessarily reflect the position of the US Navy. It was nice to chat with you at the January WSESRB. The UV eye hazard to firefighters from ordnance and metal fires is still an interest item. Hope you can help us make some progress with this issue. R/ Dave Satterfield David B.
