FW: Interview request
FYI. We did not do an interview with Ochsner a few weeks ago.
Thinking a statement would be appropriate after I speak with him to get a better idea of the story.
We can discuss this one after I speak with him.

Subject: Interview request
Importance: High
Hope you're well. I'm working on a story that will run this Thursday about the GenX situation down in Wilmington.
Specifically, the story will focus on Sec. Regan's claim to the Wilmington Star -News on June 15 "what we have here is a
situation where the company (Chemours) is not breaking the law," and other claims from state regulators that
Dupont/Chemours was permitted to discharge GenX.
Our story will include an interview with a science professor at UNCW who says none of the company's permits allow
discharge of GenX. It will also point to notes in the DEQ permit file from a June 2015 meeting in which it appears Dupont
DEQ-CFW 00082201
told regulators they were not discharging C3 dimer acid into the river. That, of course, would appear to be a false and
misleading statement.
If possible, I'd like to do an on -camera interview with someone from DEQ tomorrow (Wednesday). We're happy to come
to Raleigh.
Feel free to give me a call on my cell if you'd like to discuss further.
Thanks!
