Last 3 years served with duke energy in this region. Public input is appreciative. We are closing basins in ways that put safety first minimize impacts to communities and manage costs. We recommend excavating ash from the 5 ash basins and moving them to a brook haven mine not far from cape fear. Possible risk of flooding has been evaluated to excavating is safest. Process to evaluate closure 1 Indira Everett OuKe options is technical a science based. Closing ash basins is about people and communities. People and communities is top priority. Focus will be on minimizing impact to community. We continue to keep our neighbors informed via mailing and websites and 1-1 conversations. In alst year she has spoken with individuals nd encourages that type of open dialogue. She encourages people to continue asking questions. thank you for your participation and the opportunity Speaker start time:6:27 Lives in moncure near haw river. Chairperson of chatham citizens against coal ash dams. Should be classified as high risk and removed immediately. They're all upstream drinking water for 500,000 people. Sanfords water intake is only 5 miles downstream from where the spill _- is. Duke energy has not worked to change the situation for years. The ponds are deteriorating. 2 Judy Horan tnair person 5 million tons are held back by leaking dikes and have received the worst structural DEQ has not inforced violations. They say they're going to be fixed but haven't been fixed so far. Duke energy has been caught pumping polluted water from the bottom. Duke is in violation for the clean water act and DEQ has grounds for enforcement and they have not. Jacquie Ayala Nc chapter of cierra cluB She has been told that duke haz been doing maintenance But tney have Been caught not doing so. This is a husE risk to the public. Are the people of nc being killed off by the company that provides energy. This is not demucragy this is totalitarism Speaker start time:6:31 Cierra clu has concerns about coal ash cleanup.

Damages wiii Be uevasaung to downstream water uses. Dam Safety says they will be low risk once the repairs has been made but the repair have yet to be matle and they have until 20/-u undi tney have to remove all the coal ash. Until then they will be pui3onin5 our water. This should be a criminal act since it is against the clean water act. Is it okay for them to continue to poison the water for the next 8 years that's what happened when they dompzd the the coal ash in the Water fur yEarr before being caught. The3e oru hish risk and tMe process Should bE started immealately to remove the coo ash. Yes this will be a more coastly solution but we cannot pass this pollutin on to future generations. Duke energy showed arevenue 2.68 billion dollars in 2015 so they have enough oney to clean it up. Speaker start time:6:40 There isn't anything I can say tonight about coal ash and duke energy that you dnt already know i and haven't already heard. However, I would like to offer an observation. We are faced with a hard challenge could this problem be faced with your conscious. What ima sking you to do as deq people is to hear and rally absorb what these people are saying tonight and that you act with 5 Donna-EricRianil public your conscious. I know that you have the coal ash management act that is breathing fdown your neck but you will have to face judgement day and karma by looking the other wy and slapping duke on their wrist. We are not isolated we are a group together that are trying to keep each of us infomed as to what is going ona dnw a are a force that is reckoned with and we want you to hear us and we wat you to protect us that is your job so please do it. Speaker start time:6:42 Why is duke energy not being held responsible. They are heavily contaminated are samples need to be taken from these ponds. Under no 6 Arlene Jackson None provided circumstances should duke energy be able to empty thir coal ash into these water ways. Chromium from coal ash is typically 100% hexavalent chromium. 5 million tons of coal ash in the county. Speaker start time:6:45 Been reviewing emails and pubic records that show dept of health and human services establish the limits for hexavalent chromium were developed using well understood methodologies that are protective of public health. Deq agreed with this. How can all of 7 1 Merese vicR Olude ride enviro these ponds not be considered high risk. Where defencse league is the science why isn't deq testing for radioactivity. Chatham county ahs been victimized byt the coal ash that's already here and are being vicitimized again by the coal ash that is coming again. Isolating the coall ash above ground is safer. Folks don't trust duke energy Speaker start time:7:02 is going to be a much 8 Paul Waterstone greater problem 20,30,40 years don the road and 10 as the areas get more populated it will effect even more people. speaker start EIme:5:51 Chatham county citizen.

Igo assurances hat water supply 13nt high risk. How can we set risk when we haven't cone stuElies. I recommend they be classified as high risk. If they fail they II ruRller contaminate water downstream. Duke energy needy to clean tip the spills in a way that dyes not harm the public. Coal ash should be stabilizes anti stored above around tv- limit the risk. apealter start Eime:6:55 Deq has taken a complex risk assesmt anti suppressed all the rink to a dumbed down 3 point check list. Cape fear plant nas a terrible h6tury of cracks and leaks poor maintenance lack of attention to erosion and basic eneineei ing requirement,. Deq has lowerea Elie initial risk as3u�sment in the draft to a risk level of intermediate. nattier than luukin8 at the larger risk there is huge Nues involved with a proper cone risk asse„ment. Deq trivialized the risk assessment. i hese neett to be looked at and n=examined: IQumoer or people li„ina downstream that John Wagner Chatham county depend on cape fear river for water supply - residurnt 500,000 peziple QaRe anti tieq have nut released to the public any info about levels of rauioactive mate, ials and isotopes in the coal ash. This needs to be done accuarely anti transparently. Not fair to call it intermediate when we tion-t Rnow the cu„taminant3 in it soil type o€tile cape tar -sigle type of sedimenE can have a variey of causes but the une3 that seem to apply to this site are erosion and reposition of material. Why is this relevant? Why are sandy levels of ;oily relevant bEcause the 100 year flood level almu;t entirely cuvar3 all of the plant so if you've got sandy soil and 100 year flood and foods are happening more and morn frequent as our scientists to Know ... to ignore the fact that this could be washed away with one major flood- extremely likely. N. times article in /OiS saiti auKes crimes are a Breach of the public's trust We art asking the deq to set the risk level to higR and continually monitor ant[ tion't allow dukes self -monitoring to be the only type of monitoring Speaker start time: r:05 z,hould be classified as high risk. This is so obvious. There is metal pollution and threatens drinRing water ant[ effecteti tRe soil and under the ground. The public has not been informed of the excavation plans tr the coal ash. i Re public 11 Martha uirolami is left out except for tnese stupid hearing which will probably be ignored. Deq is the responsible party in all this. How can the public Have any trust Max this is going to be fixed. Duke hasn't gotten any violations and they're being allowed to monitor the area witMout tieq. [isien to tRe citizens of nc and make duke take responsibility. 12 1 Sarah Wood Speaker start time:7:09 wantea to offer a medical perspective to this debate or plea for help. I emphasize the need to classifiy finis as a RigR risR site There has already been found over 300x allowable levels in the water in cape fear affection .a million people of boron and selenium amongst other3 we don't know about.

Speaker start time:7:49 Does not disagree with intermediate 22 Hmy mclams Appalachian classification but thinks that the cleanup should voices be now. We should find a way to recycle the ash instead of burying it. Speaker start time:7:52 How can duke be responsible for the problem but not be responsible for the cleanup. Why 23 Susan Dedy should NC be responsible. Duke energy has billions of dollars in revenue and can afford the cleanup. The procedures and everything going on needs to be public information. Speaker start time:7:54 Public should be given more opportunity to have these conversations. Work together with universities, engineers, deq and duke to find the 24 aarah Kellogg Appalachian best way to deal with the ash. She does not vices agree with the proposal of solutions.
