The EPA anticipates that the community engagements will provide valuable insight for the agency's efforts moving forward.

*The PFAS National Leadership Summit:*                     On May 22-23, 2018, the EPA hosted the PFAS National Leadership Summit. During the summit, participants worked together to share information on ongoing efforts to characterize risks from PFAS, develop monitoring and treatment/cleanup techniques, identify specific near-term actions (beyond those already underway) that are needed to address challenges currently facing states and local communities, and develop risk communication strategies that will help communities to address public concerns regarding PFAS.                

                    The EPA wants to assure the public that their input is valuable and meaningful. Using information from the National Leadership Summit, public docket, and community engagements, the EPA plans to develop a PFAS Management Plan for release later this year. A summary of the Pennsylvania Community Engagement will be made available to the public following the event on the EPA's PFAS Community Engagement website at:                     *https://www.epa.gov/​pfas/​pfas-community-engagement.*
