Iowa HF723 requires wastewater treatment plants to test sewage sludge for perfluoroalkyl or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) before applying it to farmland. If PFAS are detected, the plant must notify the land owner, who can then refuse the sludge without legal consequence. This ensures that farmland is not contaminated by potentially harmful substances.
