Jamie and Sarah: | wanted to share a suggested reply with your before sending tothe constituent. Please advise—
McHening:
Thank you for your email referencing concerns about Chemours and GenX. The Department of Environmental
Quality (DEQ) is aware of the situation and this week began collecting data samples to better understand current
conditions and take appropriate action.
While there is a low health risk associated with GenX, DEQ has strongly encouraged Chemours to identify any
measures that can be taken to reduce or eliminate the discharges of the chemical to the Cape Fear River until the
state completes its investigation. OEC> also is pushing the Environmental Protection Agency to provide regulatory
guidance onQonX.which ionnunregulated contaminant.
DEQ will be launching a website this week to share information about GenX. The page is not yet active but will be
easily found from our landing page at qL1Li,,,,//deqnc.qov/.
Again, thank you for contacting DEQ about this matter.
