Regulation 61

PFAS and airport

Over recent months, Regulation 61 notices have been served to airports across the UK under the Environmental Permitting Regulations 2016. These notices focus on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and other potential pollutants.

Given the widespread historical use of PFAS in firefighting foams at airports, contamination risks are significant. Early identification and robust monitoring are essential to ensure compliance and protect the environment.

At VLS Ltd, we provide a comprehensive PFAS testing suite covering all required compounds.
Our UKAS-accredited services include:

✅ Groundwater sampling

✅ Surface water sampling

✅ Soil sampling

All analysis is performed in-house, with a 7-day turnaround as standard, ensuring fast and reliable results.

If you’ve have been served with a Regulation 61 notice or want to stay ahead of compliance requirements, partner with experts who understand the complexity of PFAS testing.
