PFAS Scrutiny for Consumer Goods: Consumer Reports tested 19 baby wipe products for 30 PFAS compounds and found none detectable, and also reported no PFAS or lead in 10 baby lotions; it likewise found no detectable BPA/lead/phthalates in tested baby bottles and flagged fragrance-free, simpler formulas as the safer bet for sensitive baby skin. Food-Safety Enforcement: Maharashtra’s FDA suspended licenses of multiple Mumbai eateries, including a Bombay Presidency Radio Club and a McDonald’s outlet, after inspections cited live flies, dead cockroaches, improper storage of chemicals near food, and hygiene lapses. PFAS Funding Push: Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers and the DNR urged lawmakers to release $10M from a PFAS settlement with Tyco Fire Products for private-well testing and replacements in the Marinette area. Industrial Chemical Compliance Gap: Arkansas regulators said a Fort Smith chemical plant (C&S Chemicals) operated without a required stormwater permit before a May spill and also missed hazardous-chemical inventory filings, setting up potential enforcement. Corporate Chemical Expansion: Reliance Industries shareholders approved adding explosives, blasting agents, fertilisers and agrochemicals to its business objects, including products like ammonia and ammonium nitrate. Drug-Precursor Chemical Detection: Nigeria’s NDLEA said US-provided forensic equipment helped identify a precursor chemical tied to fentanyl production during a major meth lab bust in Ogun. Agrochemical/Plant Defense Research: Chinese researchers reported cowpea plants can summon parasitic wasps and also prime soil defenses via root-released chemicals, pointing to new ways to manage crop pests.
