I wanted to check to see if you all received my questions yesterday. My absolute deadline for my story on GenX is today.
Also, I am inputing some of the permitting information released during the press conference last Thursday and wanted tt
send you the what I have written about it to double check it for factual information. As I understand your staff may not
have had documentation in front of them at the time, I wanted to give you all the chance to correct anything that needs
to be corrected. I have posted the information below.

Is this a reapplication after the 5-year timeframe, or simply a permit renewal and is there a difference? And what is the
timeline for Chemours new permit? Does the NCDEQ's investigation have any impact on the timeline for permit renewal at
this time? In other words, are you all waiting for the completed investigation before issuing a new permit to Chemours?
Here is the information from last week:

According to NCDEQ assistant secretary for environment Sheila Holman, every five years companies are required to
submit a new application to the NCDEQ, which looks into anything that has changed in the discharges as it relates to its
regulated pollutants. The agency's rules set a permit shield of six months while the NCDEQ conducts this review process.
During that time a company is allowed to operate under the existing permit.
DEQ-CFW-00079123

En the NCDEQ's current evaluation of Chemours' new application, and with the new information on GenX, the agency is
looking into any additional changes that need to be made with company's existing permit before reissuing its new permit,
Holman said.
Ahope you all can at least provide 8timely response tOthe questions and factual check 0nthe circumstances Of
Chemours current stance as it relates to the NCDEQ's permitting process.
Thank you again for your time.
