A report from the Physicians for Social Responsibility released in April 2023 found that oil and gas operators, between 2013 and 2022, injected at least 200 wells with PFAS. The report also highlighted that more than 8,200 well injections contained at least one trade secret chemical per well, and more than a third of those injections could include PFAS chemicals.
