    In April 2015, the U.S. Air Force asked the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) to evaluate past and current exposures to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the Pease Tradeport public water system (PWS). The Pease Tradeport PWS serves the Pease International Tradeport and the New Hampshire Air National Guard base at the former Pease Air Force Base (AFB). The source of PFAS in the Pease Tradeport PWS is assumed to be from aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) used on the former Pease AFB, now known as the Pease International Tradeport. This evaluation focuses on exposures to persons who worked at the Pease International Tradeport and children who attended the two childcare centers at the Pease International Tradeport from 1993 to present. However, ATSDR acknowledges that exposures to military and base personnel could have occurred before 1993 through drinking water and other sources.
