#MaineCDC recommends limiting fish consumption from 4 new bodies of water due to #PFAS contamination

"The Maine Center for Disease Control is recommending that people limit consuming fish from four new bodies of water due to #PFASContamination.

"The new advisories apply to game fish caught in #LovejoyPond in #AlbionME, the #SebasticookRiver in #BurnhamME and #BentonCollyerBrook in #GrayME, and #AndroscogginLake in #LeedsME and #WayneME.

"The Maine CDC issued the new guidelines after elevated levels of PFAS, the group of man-made #ForeverChemicals, were detected in fish tissue sampled by the Maine Department of Environmental Protection last year.

"In the recommendations updated last week, the Maine CDC also expanded its advisories on #AnnabessacookLake in #MonmouthME and #WinthropME, and #MessalonskeeStream in #OaklandME and #WatervilleME.

"These additions bring the total number of rivers, lakes and streams that have game fish contaminated with unsafe levels of PFAS to 25.

"For more details on the consumption limits on numbers and species of freshwater fish in each waterbody, check out the Maine CDC website."
