No problem. I will let him know. I will get an update on the sampling schedule though.

Marla,
I thought we agreed to address answers to his questions we answered on June 201h —you specifically said there would not be new questions.
If he would like these questions answered I will be glad to help you do so in writing but I will not have all the answers at 11:15.

Hello All,
In preparation for our 11:15 phone call with Vaughn, please find below his questions for his next story.
Linda, please see #3. Are those topics that were discussed on Friday?
Thanks,
Marla

Hi, Marla. It probably would be helpful for you guys to have a copy of the Chemours' most recent NPDES permit application, since we'll be referring to it.
The one I have has a cover sheet dated April 27, 2016. Please let me know if there's a later one or any subsequent submissions that I should be aware of.
Otherwise, I'll look for your call at 11:15 a.m. Again, my number is (910) 264-8338.
Meanwhile, I'm working on a separate story with a deadline of 4 p.m. today that updates the water testing. Among other things, I'm hoping to get answers
to these:
1) What's the status of the testing -- what's been done so far? What's coming up this week and later? When might we expect results? And, can you tell me,
specifically, when CFPUA's ASR well is being tested?
DEQ-CFW 00003142
2) Can DEQ confirm that Chemours has, in fact, been operating the process that results in GenX as a byproduct throughout the testing period? We've had a
number of questions from folks wondering about this since the company said it was an intermittent process and it would be great to put that to bed.
3) Has DEQ confirmed definitively that Chemours has ceased discharging GenX into the Cape Fear? When did that actually occur? Does it include the
other "novel" compounds? How is Chemours keeping the wastewater from being discharged? Mike Johnson mentioned something about needing three
tanker trucks a day to handle it. Is that what they're doing? Is that being hauled off for incineration? If so, where? If not trucks, what is the process? Also,
has DEQ visited to plant to inspect this process?
Are those questions you can help me address?
