    A contractor attaches plumbing lines to a UV system during the Army's first installation of a Point of Entry Treatment (POET) filtration system in a home in the East Selah, Washington, community on Aug. 31, 2023, as part of its PFAS response in the area. A POET system is a whole-house, multi-stage filtration system that filters and disinfects all water entering the home.
    The Army chose the POET filtration systems for homes in the East Selah community where PFAS levels are above 70 parts per trillion. PFAS were present in aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF), a critical firefighting agent that was previously used during training at YTC and impacted the groundwater outside the training center gates.
