About STEEP's Private Well Study

Sources, Transport, Exposure & Effects of PFAS (STEEP) is a Superfund Research Program led by the University of Rhode Island in partnership with the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health’s Department of Environmental Health and Silent Spring Institute. STEEP is funded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) Superfund Research Program to address the emerging problem of PFAS contaminated sites across the U.S. and elsewhere. STEEP is engaging Cape Cod communities that have been exposed to elevated PFAS levels. Our local community partners include Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition and the Sierra Club Cape Cod Group.
