What Oklahoma is doing about PFAS

As of April 2026, Oklahoma has not adopted state-level PFAS drinking water standards beyond the federal EPA limits finalized in April 2024. The Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality has tracked contamination near Tinker Air Force Base in Midwest City and Vance Air Force Base near Enid.

Public water systems in Oklahoma are subject to the federal compliance timeline requiring initial monitoring by 2027 and treatment installation by 2029.

Based on Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality publications.
