Dear Mr. Dunne:

fighting exposures to PFOS. Were any such programs to be instituted at the federal level, the
agencies most likely to be involved would be the Department ofDefense, the National Institutes
for Occupational Safety and Health, or the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention.
To EPA's knowledge, 3M was the only producer of PFOS-based aqueous film forming

including fluorinated telomer products, and EPA is. continuing its investigation ofthese fluorinated chemistries to determine whether they may pose issues similar to those raisedby PFOS. EPA's investigation is on the base chemistryrather than on fire foam products, however, because these chemicals are employed in a wide varietoy f products and uses. If EPA were to obtain any health monitoring information on fire fighter exposures to PFOS or to telomer-based AFFF, it would include that information in the Administrative Record for the fluorinated compounds, AR-226: PFOS, PFOA, Telomers, and Related Chemicals.
`We must note that someof the information in your letter to Dr. Satcher was not correct.

in humans,a statistically significant riskofdeath from bladder cancer was reported in male
employees who worked at the plant in high exposure jobs for more than 20 years. In addition,
changes in thyroid levels have been reported in some workers with high PFOS exposure.
However, there are several limitations to these studies, such as the small number ofparticipants,
which make interpretationof these data difficult. Additional studies are underway, and the results
