PFAS-Confirmed Superfund Sites in Nevada

These are EPA National Priorities List (NPL) Superfund sites in Nevada with documented PFAS contamination. It's a statewide list, not an address check — the presence of a site somewhere in the state doesn't mean any specific home is affected. To know whether a site is near a particular property, check that address directly.

No PFAS-confirmed NPL Superfund sites listed in Nevada

Our curated dataset of PFAS-confirmed National Priorities List sites currently shows none in Nevada. That's reassuring on the PFAS-Superfund front, but not a full all-clear: EPA's broader Superfund/SEMS inventory includes many non-PFAS and earlier-stage sites that aren't in this list. To see every EPA Superfund site near a particular Nevada property — plus its water, PFAS, flood, and air profile — check the specific address.

VetMyAddress maps nearby EPA Superfund/NPL sites and grades the address A–F alongside its water, PFAS, flood, and air data.

We start your address profile right away, then check EPA, FEMA, AirNow, public water, and Census-backed records where available. Public sources may take a short time to respond.

What this Nevadalist does — and doesn't — tell you

A site appearing on this page means EPA has confirmed PFAS contamination at a National Priorities List Superfund site somewhere in Nevada. It is a statewide screening list. It does not tell you the distance from any specific home, the exposure pathway, or whether the local drinking-water system is affected.

For a specific property, the things that actually matter are:

  • Distance to the nearest site — risk generally drops sharply with distance.
  • Contamination type & pathway — groundwater PFAS matters most if the home draws from a private well or an affected public system.
  • Cleanup stage— active vs. “construction complete” vs. deleted.
  • The home's water source— pair Superfund proximity with the property's drinking-water and PFAS data.

That address-level synthesis — nearest-site distance plus the home's full environmental profile in one A–F grade — is what the VetMyAddress report is for.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many PFAS-confirmed Superfund sites are in Nevada?

Our curated dataset of PFAS-confirmed NPL Superfund sites currently lists none in Nevada. That is not a clean bill of health: EPA's broader Superfund/SEMS inventory includes many non-PFAS and assessment-stage sites. A specific-address report checks the full EPA SEMS database near the property.

Does a nearby Superfund site affect a Nevada home?

Proximity is a starting point, not a verdict. Real-world impact depends on distance, the type of contamination, the exposure pathway (groundwater, soil, vapor), the home's water source, and the cleanup stage. A site two miles away marked 'construction complete' is very different from an active site next door.

How do I check Superfund sites for a specific Nevada address?

Use VetMyAddress to see EPA Superfund/NPL sites near any Nevada address, bundled with the home's drinking water, PFAS, flood zone, and air-quality data in a single plain-English A–F grade. EPA's own ECHO database (echo.epa.gov) is the free, official source if you prefer to dig through the raw records.

What does 'PFAS-confirmed' mean for an NPL site?

It means PFAS ('forever chemicals') have been documented in the contamination at that National Priorities List site. PFAS is persistent and can migrate through groundwater, so a confirmed PFAS site is worth pairing with the home's drinking-water and PFAS data to understand the exposure pathway.
