Additional Comments:
History: On March 16, 1992, Duke University submitted written notice to DEQ of the use of coal combustion
furnace ash from the Duke University Steam Plant as structural fill in the foundation of the Science Research
Center on the West Campus of Duke University. In this letter, it was estimated that four to five thousand tons
would be used for this project.
