This is Lisa Sorg with NC Policy Watch. I'm working on a general story about emerging contaminants in drinking
water, e.g. GenX, Cr6 and 1-4 dioxane.
I have a few questions about what is within DEQ's authority to regulate these contaminants:
1) Gov. Cooper yesterday called on EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt to provide the state with regulatory
guidance for GenX. Can DEQ establish its own rules -- even temporarily or on an emergency basis -- regardin,-.4
contaminant levels in drinking water? Or does this fall under the authority of the EIVIC?
2) If DEQ/EMC has this authority, what is the process and timeline?

budget cuts impose on the agency's ability to do this work?
