PFAS-Contaminated Soil & Water SWMS
PFAS contaminated soil and groundwater remediation works — PPE programme, containment, decontamination procedures, waste classification, and health monitoring for exposed workers.
SWMS variants reference your state’s WHS legislation. Instant download after payment.
PFAS-contaminated soil and groundwater remediation involves excavation, handling, and disposal of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance impacted media. Work triggers WHS Regulation 2017 Part 7.1 hazardous chemical duties, Regulation 347 health monitoring obligations, and PCBU duties under NEMP 2.0 and state EPA contaminated land frameworks.
Hazards identified
3 hazards covered, sorted by priority.
Bioaccumulation, liver and immune system harm
Long-term systemic toxicity and contamination
Environmental breach and regulatory enforcement
Control measures
Hierarchy-of-controls order: elimination → substitution → isolation → engineering → administrative → PPE.
- 1Establish exclusion, contamination reduction, and support zones with formal decontamination line per NEMP 2.0.
- 2Mandatory P2/P3 respirators, chemical-resistant coveralls, double gloves; suppress dust with potable water misting.
- 3Classify, contain, and track PFAS waste under state EPA guidelines; conduct Reg 368 health monitoring.
