The AFFF foam has contaminated the ground water with PFAS, shutting down two city wells and contaminating the wells of at least 40 residents near the airport.

FireAde is just a manufacturer of various firefighting foams.
We stopped using AFFF years ago, after all the hazards associated with it were brought out. We use class A foam now.
