"A federal district court has dismissed environmental groups’ lawsuit claiming a plastics packaging company illegally produced PFAS, while a separate EPA lawsuit making the same allegations proceeds.

The environmental groups alleged Inhance Technologies USA violated the Toxic Substances Control Act by producing certain PFAS without the approval required by Environmental Protection Agency regulations.
