Can you tell me where the discharges are and what they are? This map of industrial dischargers in the Cape Fear River basin will provide that information: https:Hncdenr.maps.arcais.com/apps/webappviewer/index.htmI?id=f321 a18b6def4a6c85f931234e28deaf. Note that this includes the entire basin —not just the main stem, which has only 19 industrial dischargers. Can you also tell me how many water systems there are that pull from the Cape Fear River, what and where they are, and how many people each of them serve? Staff from our public water supply program are working to pull that information together, but it may be tomorrow before I have it. I appreciate the help.

As a requirement of the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency gathers data about select unregulated contaminants to determine their prevalence and levels at drinking water facilities in the nation. When combined with relevant health effect studies, the data is used to help EPA determine if regulation is necessary, and if so, at what levels. The webpage for the overall program and monitoring data can be found at: hftps://www.epa.gov/dwucmr. Can you tell me how many industries discharge into the Cape Fear River? There are 19 major facilities located on the mainstem of the Cape Fear River that have a NPDES wastewater discharge permit. Over half of those facilities are municipal wastewater treatment plants. All of these facilities are required to perform monitoring and submit monthly discharge monitoring reports to DEQ. For industrial dischargers, the types of chemicals they are required to monitor for depends on their industrial processes and applicable state and federal regulations.
