§2712 Reporting on usage and spills of aqueous film-forming foam

Summary

The Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Environment must notify the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives within 48 hours after learning about a use or spill of aqueous film‑forming foam, whether concentrate or mixed, if it is greater than 10 gallons of concentrate or greater than 300 gallons of mixed foam. The notice must say the installation name, the date, the amount, type and concentration, the cause, and a short summary of what happened. Within 60 days after that notice, the Deputy Assistant Secretary must send an action plan to those same committees that explains what was done to stop and clean up the spill and any coordination with local or State environmental agencies.
