A drinking water well is modified and upgraded with water treatment equipment at Shaw Air Force Base, S.C., Oct. 24, 2024. The new filtration system installed for Base Well 3 is only a small part of the 20th Fighter Wing’s commitment to monitoring and controlling the presence of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances in the groundwater, safeguarding the health and safety of the installation and the surrounding community. A separate ground water treatment plant is located on base to treat the main concentration of PFAS under the installation, removing the substances from groundwater that could reach any of the base wells or that may leave the installation.
