Jamie — Basically, my story looks at the larger spectrum of industry vs. chemicals along the Cape Fear
River, using the GenX issue asa peg. | plan to look atthe overall industry issued permits, the backlog you
all are facing, what other chemicals are the water (both regulated and unregulated) and how the N[DE[\
authorizes these chemicals in the permitting process, while balancing out the need to protect human
health and allow for industry toconduct business inthe state.
I will also be asking specific questions about the permitting process and Chemours permit.
OEQ-CFVV_00081900

I have developed a list of questions for you but I hope that I will not be limited to these questions as I
may have more in the coming days prior to the interview and more while the interview is taking place.
Some ofmyspecific questions include:
How are the chemicals picked? How do you all gather what should be included in permits? And how do
you all weigh one permit with all others that have similar chemicals discharged for the overall scope of
what's safe in a particular body of water (in this case the Cape Fear River) and people living alongside it?
How do you all plan to look into by product issues like Chemours and is this a larger piece to a new look
at the way you all conduct permits and how you plan to look at industrial sites in the future?
Is water treatment factored into the amount chemical substances are regulated?
How do you assess what exactly a company is discharging? Is there methods that testawide range of
regulated and unregulated contaminates in the waters across the state? Do you actually know exactly
what all iuinthe waters ofthe Cape Fear?
As far as the unregulated chemicals in Dr. Knappe's report, other than GenX, how do you plan to
regulate and monitor those other emerging contaminants? Is it possible to find out where they came
from and do you suspect they are related to another industrial sources other than Chemours?
Has Chemours exceeded any regulations of it's permit? If so, is it documented and when did that
vio|adon(s)take place? Are violations normal? What happens when there is slight violation in the
regulatory process?
If there is a permitting back log and industries are currently operating under old permits, how do you all
keep them regulated oncurrent industry standard regulations?
What is the status of Chemours new permit? Is there a timeline or how long do you all think a permit
will be pending during the larger investigative process by local, state and federal authorities?
The "new class ofemerging contaminants" how doyou plan onhandling that issue asfar aspermitting
and monitoring? Can anything be done about it at this point when there is no regulation?
How is The Chemours Co. able to have a limitation for GenX in one part of it's discharge permit and not
the other?
Where in the permit does it allow GenX? — I've looked over the report several times and it does not state
the generic chemical name nor the full chemical name?
Let me know if I can help you any further.
Best,
Christina
