Compounds called PFOS and PFOA, once used in non-stick cookware coatings, firefighting foam and other materials, were detected in utilities that serve about 69,000 people in the city of Fountain and the adjacent unincorporated Security-Widefield, the federal Environmental Protection Agency said. “I don’t know what the short-term effects are or the long-term effects,” says Pandolfi.
