A modeling study in Cell Reports Sustainability suggests that treating PFAS results below minimum reporting levels as zero captures only 44% of the average concentration of 25 PFAS across 9,991 community water systems. The model puts the six regulated PFAS average at 5.2 ng/L versus 2.6 ng/L, though the authors stress these are predictions, not proof of health risk.
