Jamie, Sarah and I made a few tweaks to your version. Is Chemours paying for testing at both locations?
It's unclear below and may prompt questions. Please advise:
The N.C. Department of Environmental Quality engaged in efforts to stop the discharge of GenX by
Chemours and is investigating the presence of GenX in the Cape Fear River to ensure that impacts of the
unregulated chemical are better understood. You may be aware that Chemours responded on June 20 to
requests from DEQ as well as local governments and concerned citizens by announcing that the
company is taking additional measures to capture, remove and safely dispose of wastewater that
contains GanX at its Fayetteville manufacturing plant.
This is ogood stop. but DEC> and the N.C. Department ofHealth and Human Services will continue to
investigate this issue until we have answers to address the concerns of downstream water users.
Fresh data is essential for documenting current conditions and taking appropriate action. Last week, DEQ
began collecting water samples from several sites along the Cape Fear River. Additional samples will be
collected throughout the region this week and next week. After meeting with DEQ staff ,Chemounsagreed
to pay an independent lab in Colorado to analyze water samples. The water samples DEQ collects will
also be analyzed by officials at the Environmental Protection Agency's lab in the Research Triangle Park
near Raleigh. The results of both analyses will be made available to the public by DEQ and DHHS.
EPA is reviewing additional data submitted by the company as part of its risk assessment on GenX.
Additionally, DEQ launched a website last week to share information about GenX. The page can be found
at the following address on DEQ's website: https:ZZdeg.nc.govZnewsZhot-topicsZgenx-investigation.
Thank you for your email.
