Re: Chemours Fayetteville Works NPDES Permit Application for the
Groundwater Treatment System
Dear Mr. Chernikov:
The Chemours Company — Fayetteville Works is submitting a National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) permit application to North Carolina Department of
Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) for the above -referenced facility. This facility is required
under the Addendum to Consent Order Paragraph 12 to reduce mass loading of per- and
polyfluoroalkyl substances (PEAS) from seeps and groundwater to the Cape Fear River. The
Addendum to the Consent Order requires that Chemours commence full operation of the
proposed groundwater remedy no later than March 15, 2023. The Groundwater Treatment
System needs to be operational no later than April 1, 2022 to meet the Consent Order
obligations.
Your timely review of this application is therefore much appreciated. Chemours would like
to schedule a meeting in early July to review and discuss this application with you. In the
meantime, if you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Christel
Compton at (910) 678-1213.
Sincerely,
111.

NPDES PERMIT APPLICATION —JUNE 13, 2021
Chemours Fayetteville June 13, 2021 NPDES Permit Application for the Groundwater
Treatment System
The Chemours Company FC, LLC (Chemours) is providing this National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) permit application for discharges from a Groundwater Treatment
System (GWTS) at Fayetteville Works. The GWTS is required under the Addendum to Consent
Order (CO) between Chemours and the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality
(NCDEQ). The objective of the GWTS is to reduce mass loading of per- and polyfluoroalkyl
substances (PFAS) from seeps and groundwater to the Cape Fear River, as measured by three
indicator PFAS.1 The GWTS will discharge into the pipe that conveys effluent from Outfall 002
from Chemours Fayetteville Works Site (the Site) to the Cape Fear River.
This will be the third NPDES permit associated with the Site. The first permit authorizes discharges
to the Cape Fear River through Outfall 002 under NC003573. Chemours is also authorized under
NC0089915 to discharge effluent from Outfall 003 to the Cape Fear River. The design of the
GWTS is similar to the design of the treatment system for Outfall 003. The effluent data that has
been submitted to NCDEQ with EPA Form 2C for permit number NC0089915 is therefore
considered to be suitable to estimate the expected effluent data for the GWTS.
The application for this new discharge consists of Form 2D and its various attachments.
1 The three indicator PFAS are hexafluoropropylene oxide-dimer acid (HFPO-DA), perfluoro-2-methoxypropanoic
acid (PMPA), and perfluoro-l-methoxyacetic acid (PFMOAA).

Subject: Chemours Fayetteville Works — Groundwater and Seeps Water Quality
Assessment
1 INTRODUCTION
Geosyntec Consultants of NC, P.C. (Geosyntec) has prepared this memorandum for The
Chemours Company FC, LLC (Chemours). This document summarizes a water quality
assessment of groundwater and seep data intended to represent the influent to a
groundwater extraction and treatment system (Groundwater Treatment System or
GWTS). The GWTS is a requirement of the Addendum to Consent Order paragraph 12
(CO Addendum) amongst Chemours, the North Carolina Department of Environmental
Quality (NCDEQ), and Cape Fear River Watch entered by the court on October 12, 2020.
The GWTS will discharge to the pipe that conveys the effluent from Outfall 002 at the
Fayetteville Works site to the Cape Fear River. The discharge will enter the pipe
approximately 870 feet downstream of Outfall 002 and is expected to be designated as
Outfall 004. The combined discharge from Outfalls 002 and 004 will then enter the river.
As part of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit
application for the GWTS, Chemours is required to complete EPA Application Form 2D
New Manufacturing, Commercial, Mining, and Silvicultural Operations That Have Not
Yet Commenced Discharge of Process Wastewater. EPA Form 2D requires information
on whether a compound is believed present in the intake water for the treatment system
and the maximum concentrations expected in the treatment system discharge for a
number of different compounds. This water quality assessment was conducted to provide
this information. Results are summarized herein. For compounds where the averages of
the untreated groundwater and seeps water were calculated to be greater than a water
quality criterion, information has been incorporated into the Engineering Report
(Geosyntec, 2021).

Data from untreated groundwater and seep sampling that occurred from 2018 through
2020 were evaluated to determine what compounds should be further sampled for
inclusion on the EPA Form 2D:
a) where any untreated groundwater or seep concentration was greater than North
Carolina's most stringent, applicable surface water quality criteria (including the
North Carolina 15A NCAC 02B Water Quality Standards for Surface Waters, US
EPA National Recommended Water Quality Criteria for Aquatic Life & Human
Health, and North Carolina In -Stream Target Values for Surface Waters);
b) where the reporting limits were greater than the applicable surface water quality
criteria; and
c) where data did not exist.
The evaluation of the 2018 through 2020 data was used to inform sampling that Chemours
conducted in March and April 2021. This untreated groundwater and seep sampling was
conducted to provide representative data to complete the intake information on EPA Form
2D and to inform the engineering analysis of the GWTS.
Figure 1 provides the locations of the 2018-2020 sampling and the March/April 2021
sampling. Figure 2 shows the location of the March/April 2021 sampling. This included
four groundwater locations (EW-1, EW-3, PIW-10S, and PIW-5S) and two seep locations
(SEEP -A -WALL and SEEP-B-WALL). Concentrations from SEEP-A-TR4 were not
included in the water quality assessment for EPA Form 2D as this sample was artificially
disturbed to produce results necessary for the engineering analysis.
3 2018 THROUGH 2020 SAMPLING RESULTS
The 2018 through 2020 sampling results include data from September 27, 2018 to
October 23, 2020. Table 1 provides the comparison of the 2018 to 2020 groundwater data
to the surface water quality criteria. Table 2 provides the comparison of the 2018 through
2020 seep data to the surface water quality criteria. Of the compounds that were analyzed,
the following had at least one result that was greater than the surface water quality criteria:
• Beryllium
• Fluoride
• Iron
• Lead

These parameters were analyzed in the March/April 2021 sampling program. A number
of compounds had insufficient reporting limits for comparison to the water quality criteria
and were also included in the March/April 2021 sampling program. Additionally, some
parameters on the EPA 2D Form had not previously be analyzed for in the untreated
groundwater or seeps and were therefore included for analysis in the March/April 2021
sampling program.
4 MARCH/APRIL 2021 SAMPLING RESULTS
Samples for the March/April 2021 sampling were collected from the four representative
groundwater extraction wells and two seep locations. Sampling was conducted on March
3, 2021 for all parameters. Further samples were collected on additional dates in March
and April of 2021 based on the need determined by the 2018 through 2020 sampling
results or the requirements for the engineering study. Flow -weighted mean concentrations
(FWMCs) were calculated for each day based on the expected maximum daily flow from
each source, as shown in Table 3. Table 3 also includes the average daily discharge for
Outfall 002, which was used to provide an estimate of the combined concentration from
Outfall 002 and the GWTS, prior to discharge to the Cape Fear River.
4.1 Flow -weighted Mean Concentrations (FWMC)
Table 4 provides the concentrations for compounds where a single sample was collected,
along with an estimated load in pounds per day (lb/d) and a FWMC. For some
compounds, all of the concentrations were less than the reporting limit and it is assumed
that there is no reasonable potential for the GWTS discharge to cause or contribute to an
exceedance of the water quality criterion in the Cape Fear River. No additional evaluation
was performed on this data. When some of the concentrations were above the reporting
limit, the FWMC in Table 4 was calculated assuming concentrations below the reporting
limit were equal to the reporting limit.

Table 5 provides the concentrations for compounds where multiple samples were
collected, along with an estimated load and a FWMC for each day. The load and FWMC
calculations were performed assuming that values less than the reporting limit were equal
to the reporting limit. For some pollutants, all of the concentrations were less than the
reporting limit and it is assumed that there is no reasonable potential for the GWTS
discharge to cause or contribute to an exceedance of the water quality criterion in the
Cape Fear River. No additional evaluation was performed for these data. If any of the
concentrations were above the reporting limit, an average load and FWMC was then
calculated across all of the sampling events.
4.2 Comparison to Surface Water Quality Criteria
As many of the results at individual wells or seeps were below the reporting limit,
FWMCs were calculated assuming concentrations below the reporting limit were set to
(1) the reporting limit, (2) one half of the reporting limit, and (3) zero. Table 6 (which
integrates information from Tables 4 and 5) shows the results of these calculations
compared to the surface water quality criteria. FWMCs that are greater than the water
quality criterion are highlighted.
For the highlighted compounds, calculations for iron and manganese were insensitive to
these varied assumptions about reporting limits and the estimated concentrations did not
change. The varied assumptions did result in decreases in the estimated concentrations of
total residual chlorine, cyanide, mercury, anthracene, fluoranthene, phenanthrene,
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and heptachlor epoxide. PAHs included in the
analysis are benzo(A)anthracene, benzo(A)pyrene, benzo(B)fluoranthene,
benzo(K)fluoranthene, and chrysene.
The samples were analyzed for total chromium and total cyanide to meet the needs of the
EPA Form 2D; however, the criteria are for Chromium III and free cyanide, respectively.
The estimated total cyanide concentration met the free cyanide water quality criterion
when concentrations below the reporting limit were assumed to be equal to one-half of
the reporting limit or zero. The total chromium concentration met the Chromium III
criteria in all assumptions.
It should also be noted that EPA approved the removal of the North Carolina aquatic life
standards for both iron and manganese due to high natural occurrence in North Carolina's
surface waters. The iron and manganese concentrations are compared to the EPA National
Recommended Water Quality Criteria for Aquatic Life & Human Health in Table 6
strictly for guidance.
For the comprehensive Site permit application, Chemours conducted a mixing zone
assessment to determine that there was an 8:1 dilution available in the Cape Fear River

for Outfall 002 (Geosyntec, 2019). Table 7 provides the comparison of the FWMC for
Outfall 004 with the 8:1 dilution applied to the water quality criteria. Results indicate that
total residual chlorine, PAHs, and heptachlor epoxide may have reasonable potential to
exceed surface water quality criteria without treatment or mixing with effluent from
Outfall 002.
A mass balance was conducted using the loads calculated with the FWMC for Outfall
004 after mixing with the effluent from Outfall 002. An average daily flow of 18.025
million gallons per day (MGD) was used for Outfall 002, consistent with the line drawing
for the NPDES permit application submitted on June 4, 2021 (see Table 3).
Concentrations for Outfall 002 include the long-term average from EPA Form 2C (when
available) or the daily maximum. Table 8 provides the loads calculated for Outfalls 002
and 004.
Table 9 shows the mass balance for Outfalls 002 and 004 and mixing zone assessment
combined results for total residual chlorine, the PAHs, and heptachlor epoxide, as these
compounds were identified in Table 7 as possibly having have reasonable potential to
exceed surface water quality criteria. The results show that the total residual chlorine is
well below the criterion. Only heptachlor epoxide and PAHs therefore warrant
consideration as additional pollutants targeted for removal by the GWTS.
5 SUMMARY
Heptachlor epoxide was only detected in one well (PIW-5S) and one seep (SEEP -A -
WALL) at low levels. Heptachlor is a breakdown product of an insecticide that is not
used at the Site. The PAH compounds were only detected at low levels in one (PIW-5S)
of the six untreated groundwater and seep sources. There is no asphalt present nearby that
would serve as a source of PAHs. PAHs and heptachlor epoxide are also not present in
the wastewater from the manufacturing operations (see the EPA Form 2C for Outfall 002
with the NPDES permit application dated June 4, 2021). In addition, flow from the PIW-
5S well is only 7% of the total flow and flow from Seep -A -Wall is only 4% of the total
flow. Finally, the Chemours river intake, Outfall 002 and Outfall 003 analytical results
for these compounds were non -detect. Chemours intends to resample PIW-5S and SEEP -
A -WALL for PAHs and heptachlor epoxide.
As indicated in the Engineering Report (Geosyntec, 2021), it is anticipated that the GWTS
will reduce the contaminant levels of these potential pollutants so that the discharge from
Outfall 004 will not cause or contribute to exceedances of the surface water quality
criteria in the Cape Fear River, if they are present.

1. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
This Engineering Report was prepared by Geosyntec Consultants of NC, P.C.
(Geosyntec) for the Chemours Company FC, LLC (Chemours) to provide a description
of the future treatment works to be installed for the collection and treatment of
groundwater and surface water from locations along the proposed groundwater remedy
alignment at the Chemours Fayetteville Works, North Carolina site (the Site). The
groundwater remedy includes a barrier wall, water extraction network, and treatment
system (Groundwater Treatment System or GWTS) is a requirement of the Addendum to
the Consent Order paragraph 12 (CO Addendum) amongst Chemours, the North Carolina
Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ), and Cape Fear River Watch entered by
the court on October 12, 2020.
The goal of the GWTS is to achieve a removal efficiency of 99%, as measured by
indicator parameters hexafluoropropylene oxide-dimer acid (HFPO-DA), perfluoro-2-
methoxypropanoic acid (PMPA), and perfluoro-1-methoxyacetic acid (PFMOAA). The
remedy is to commence operation by March 15, 2023 per paragraph 3(b) of the
Addendum to the CO. To meet this requirement, Chemours intends to complete
construction of the GWTS by April 1, 2022. Chemours will need to pump and treat the
water collected by the remedy to protect the barrier wall's structural integrity. The GWTS
therefore needs to be operational prior to the remedy's construction in June 2022.
This document provides the conceptual design and engineering assumptions for the
GWTS, in accordance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) permit application requirements. The permit application requires that
Chemours identify effluent characteristics of those parameters identified in the EPA
Application Form 2D New Manufacturing, Commercial, Mining, and Silvicultural
Operations That Have Not Yet Commenced Discharge of Process Wastewater (EPA Form
2D).
1.1 Site History and Overview
The Site is located on NC Highway 87, 15 miles southeast of the City of Fayetteville, and
south of the Bladen-Cumberland County line. The Site encompasses 2,177 acres of
relatively flat undeveloped open land and sloping woodland bounded on the east by the
Cape Fear River, on the west by NC Highway 87, and on the north and south by farmland.
The ground on which the Site is situated slopes East towards the Cape Fear River. The
proposed treatment facility is to be located on the southeastern portion of the Site just
north of the William O. Huske Lock & Dam.
E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (DuPont) purchased the property in parcels from
several families in 1970. The Site's first manufacturing area was constructed in the early

1970s. Currently, the Site manufactures plastic sheeting, fluorochemicals, and
intermediates for plastics manufacturing. A former manufacturing area, which was sold
in 1992, produced nylon strapping and elastomeric tape.
DuPont sold its Butacite® and SentryGlas® manufacturing units to Kuraray America,
Inc. in June 2014; these are now a tenant operation. In July 2015, DuPont separated its
specialty chemicals business into a new publicly traded company named The Chemours
Company FC, LLC. With this separation, Chemours became the owner of the entire 2,177
acres of the Fayetteville Works along with the Fluoromonomers, Nafion® membranes,
and Polymer Processing Aid (PPA) manufacturing units. The polyvinyl fluoride (PVF)
resin manufacturing unit remained with DuPont as a tenant operation.
In addition to the manufacturing operations, Chemours operates two natural gas -fired
boilers and a biological wastewater treatment plant for the treatment of DuPont and
Kuraray process wastewater and sanitary wastewaters from DuPont, Kuraray, and
Chemours.
1.2 Process Overview
Groundwater at the Site currently flows east towards the Cape Fear River. The extraction
and conveyance portion of the treatment design proposes to capture the groundwater flow
via the installation of a network of groundwater extraction wells and to capture the
baseflow of seeps originating upgradient of the remedy and flows during rainfalls up to
0.5 inches in depth. The extracted groundwater and seeps water will then be collected and
conveyed to be treated by the GWTS which is proposed to be located in the southeast
corner of the Site. The proposed location is shown in Figure 1.

The GWTS will be comprised of a series of chemical and physical separation steps.
Chemical oxidation and pH adjustment will first be employed to precipitate metals, such
as iron, to prevent downstream contamination or fouling of the granulated activated
carbon (GAC) media. The precipitated metals and other particles above an appropriate
control threshold will be removed via ultrafiltration membranes or some other suitable
separation technology. The filtered effluent will then be treated for per- and
polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) by GAC adsorption. The reject from the filtration and
GAC systems will undergo dewatering through a thickening tank and filter press or
centrifugation, from which the sludge cake will be disposed of offsite and the press water
will be recycled to the influent of the thickening tanks. Periodic backwashing will extend
membrane and carbon media life, and the carbon will be removed and replaced based on
breakthrough monitoring of several three -vessel carbon trains in a lead -middle -lag
arrangement. Associated design elements such as pumps, piping, electrical,
instrumentation and control for interlocks, mechanical and civil/structural elements will
be finalized during the detailed design phase. This design concept may be optimized
based on ongoing benchtop studies and data acquisition.

2. DESIGN BASIS
2.1 Aquifer Location
The ground on which the Site is situated slopes east from the facility towards the Cape
Fear River. The main groundwater aquifers therefore also flow towards the Cape Fear
River. Furthermore, there are four seeps that also contribute surface water flow to the
Cape Fear River, as identified in Figure 2.

The groundwater originates from two main aquifers, known as the Black Creek Aquifer
(BCA) and the Surficial Aquifer. These two zones are separated by the Black Creek
Confining Unit along most of the length of the proposed groundwater remedy alignment,
and the BCA is underlain by the Upper Cape Fear Confining unit, which is a layer of
competent clay.
The groundwater daylights near the Cape Fear riverbank as various seeps. There are four
seeps (Seeps A through D), although only two of these are major hydraulic contributors
(A and B) which will require collection for treatment. The estimated hydraulic loading in
gallons per minute (gpm) from the two aquifers and four seeps, post remedy construction,
is shown in Table 1.

* Seeps stormflow represents maximum increase over baseflow averaged over 24-hour period.
0 Seeps baseflow and Shallow Groundwater may include some double counting. Seeps baseflow represents the 95th
percentile instantaneous flow from each of Seeps A and B at location representative of the remedy capture location.
Actual flows may vary from these model results due to variability in rainfall. The largest
rainfall effect is expected to be seen in the seeps stormflow parameter in Table 1; the cited
108 gpm value is the 24-hour average flow for a 0.5 inch storm event. The seeps' baseflow
quantity is also a conservative estimate (i.e. high -end). For this reason, the extraction
system and the GWTS will be designed to handle reasonable expected flow variations
and the GWTS currently has a planned capacity safety factor such that a maximum design
flow of 1,500 gpm has been selected.
2.2 Influent Water Quality
The source water to the GWTS will be the extracted groundwater and captured seep
water. The groundwater will be extracted from a series of approximately 60 extraction
wells installed along the length of the proposed groundwater remedy alignment. Water
will also be captured from seeps originating upgradient of the barrier wall (Seeps A and
B). Since the GWTS has not yet been installed, the influent water quality presented in
this report is from representative wells in the associated aquifers and the seeps. The

currently available non-PFAS analytical data from the individual untreated groundwater
and seep sources, or their closest analogs, has been collected and is summarized in the
memorandum Chemours Fayetteville Works — Groundwater and Seeps Water Quality
Assessment (Geosyntec, 2021). Relevant analytical data for the engineering design,
including the PFAS data, is provided in Appendix A.
Groundwater sampling was completed at four representative groundwater wells and three
seep locations. The seep locations are shown relative to the site in Figure 2. The
groundwater wells are analogs for the various groundwater sources to be collected by the
new extraction network along the groundwater remedy alignment, as described in Table
2. Two of the seep locations (Seep A at Wall Point and Seep B at Wall Point) are analogs
for the seep baseflow and surface runoff that will be intercepted by the groundwater
remedy. The samples collected at the location Seep A minor tributary are not analogs of
seep water as the location was artificially disturbed prior to sample collection to introduce
sediment into the sample. The results from Seep A minor tributary were, however,
included in the engineering design as a safety factor.

The dataset used for the GWTS design is inclusive of untreated water data collected
during sampling events from 2019 and 2020 and a series of 11 sampling events that
occurred during March and April 2021. PFAS compounds were specifically sampled for
on March 3, March 26 and April 28, 2021. Appendix A provides a detailed overview of
the average, maximum, and minimum concentrations of all untreated water parameters
sampled for treatment design. The water collected at these wells (EW-1, EW-3, PIW-5S
and PIW-10S) and two seep locations (SEEP -A -WALL and SEEP-B-WALL) is assumed
to be representative of the total groundwater and seep flow that will be extracted and
treated by the GWTS.

In addition to PFAS analyses, a variety of supporting analytes such as total suspended
solids (TSS), and metals (such as aluminum and iron) were sampled as they were
considered key parameters of concern that would inform the pre-treatment system
upstream of the PFAS removal stage. Flow -weighted composite concentrations for each
parameter were developed for each of the groundwater and surface water groupings, as a
design aid for the development of the influent design basis. The average, minimum and
maximum mass loading of each untreated water parameter and Table 3+ compound was
estimated using the average, minimum, and maximum concentrations from the analytical
data and the flow rates in Table 1. Thus, the flow -weighted, mass -based composition for
the untreated water groundwater sources was estimated by summing the mass loadings
from PIW-5S, PIW-10S, EW-1, and EW-3. The flow -weighted average composition for
the seeps was estimated by summing the mass loadings from SEEP -A -WALL, SEEP-B-
WALL, and SEEP-A-TRN.
The projected concentrations in the combined influent to the GWTS were estimated from
the flow -weighted concentrations groundwater and surface water groupings. Upon
construction completion of the groundwater remedy, it is estimated that the total dry -
weather groundwater and surface water flows will be 950 gpm and 161 gpm, respectively.
The groundwater and surface water groupings were combined by flow -weighting the
average, minimum, and maximum concentrations using these estimated post -construction
flows. The design of the GWTS is based on the contaminant profile in Table 3.

2.3 Groundwater and Seeps Outfall
The treated groundwater and seeps water will be discharged to the Chemours Fayetteville
Site Outfall 002 discharge line to the Cape Fear River. The average flow rate from the
Outfall 002 is 18.025 million gallons per day. The water quality assessment accounted
for the combination of loads from Outfalls 004 and 002. In addition, the water quality
assessment accounted for the mixing zone analysis that was conducted for Outfall 002
that documented a river dilution of 8:1 (Geosyntec, 2019).
2.4 Influent Untreated Water Quality - Comparison to Water Quality Criteria
The groundwater and seep data for non-PFAS compounds were compared to North
Carolina's surface water quality criteria. This screening -level exercise was conservative
as no treatment was assumed. Results are documented in a memorandum - Chemours
Fayetteville Works - Groundwater and Seeps Water Quality Assessment (Geosyntec,
2021). After flow -weighting the groundwater and seeps' concentrations, incorporating
the load from Outfall 002, and applying an 8:1 dilution from the Outfall 002 mixing zone,
heptachlor epoxide and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) warrant consideration
as additional pollutants targeted for removal by the GWTS.
Heptachlor epoxide was only detected in one well (PIW-5S) and one seep (SEEP -A -
WALL) at low levels. The PAH compounds were only detected at low levels in one (PIW-

5S) of the six untreated groundwater and seep sources. As detailed in the Groundwater
and Seeps Water Quality Assessment (Geosyntec, 2021), Chemours will be resampling
these locations to confirm the presence of these compounds.
However, if these compounds are occasionally present in the influent to the GWTS it is
unlikely that they will pass -through the GWTS. Heptachlor epoxide is extremely well
adsorbed by activated carbon due to its size, double bonds, and the presence of chlorine
atoms in the structure. PAHs tend to have strong sorptive interactions with carbon due to
their hydrophobic nature and size. Activated carbon itself is composed largely of
graphene plates, and this molecular similarity strengthens the binding energies via t-7c
dispersive forces. A thorough review of the use of activated carbon (as well as other
adsorbents) for removal of PAHs from water can be found in Chemosphere 148 (2016),
336-353. A number of other literature sources are also available that include adsorption
equibria (i.e. isotherms), kinetics, and the combined effects in traditional packed bed
adsorbers which give rise to dynamic capacities for various PAHs on activated carbons.

Figure 3: Comparison of Carbon Isotherms for Heptachlor Epoxide, two PHAs, and
HFPO-DA. Data from "Carbon Adsorption Isotherms for Toxic Organics" (EPA-
600/8-80-023, April 1980).
The PFAS compounds this system is designed to treat adsorb to carbon more weakly than
PAHs, as shown in Figure 3. Additionally, they are present in the water at concentrations
roughly two orders of magnitude higher than the PAHs (and roughly four orders of
magnitude higher than the heptachlor epoxide) that may be present in the intake water.
As this treatment system will be run to prevent breakthrough of the three indicator PFAS,
it is expected that heptachlor epoxide and the PAHs will be readily sorbed by the GAC
and therefore are not expected to cause or contribute to exceedances of water quality
criteria in the Cape Fear River if present in the wastewater.
2.5 Pilot Studies
Pilot studies have been completed by vendors to verify the effectiveness of their proposed
pretreatment methods and confirm performance of their selected carbon media to remove
the required constituents and loadings from representative feed water. Tests were
performed using bulk water collected from the sources in Table 2, which was
proportionally blended based on collected flow contribution. The vendors were also
furnished influent water quality data for each source. These pilot studies are being used
to inform the efficacy of proposed full-scale treatment design, including pretreatment
dosing chemistry and residuals characterization (for solids separation and solids -handling
designs).
2.6 Pumping & Conveyance Design
Groundwater modeling remedy development presently indicates a total of approximately
50 new BCA and extraction wells and 10 surficial aquifer extraction wells will be required
to intercept groundwater. The combined maximum total flow rate produced from these
wells is expected to be approximately 950 gpm.
Each well pump is expected to extract approximately 5 to 30 gpm and will be sized to
have additional flow capacity for contingency. The extraction wells are currently planned
as high -density polyethylene (HDPE) construction below finished grade, whereas the
wellhead will be of polyvinyl chloride construction.
Each wellhead will then tee into their corresponding conveyance line (i.e., North or South
Force mains), constructed of HDPE. Approximately two thirds of the required extraction
wells will convey groundwater through the North Force main while the remaining third
is conveyed via the South Force main. The conveyance lines will be sized to

NC 1-i,oi Nu: C-35flO onJ C-295
accommodate the total collected flow of the extraction with added contingency to allow
for increased extraction rates if required. Extracted groundwater will be conveyed to a
surge tank prior to being treated by the GWTS.
The seep flow will be impounded at or near seep capture locations (impoundment storage)
to provide equalization storage during rainfall events and remove readily
settleable/suspended solids prior to being conveyed to a break tank and treated by the
GWTS.
The total maximum dry weather flow to the GWTS after the groundwater remedy is fully
operational, including seep flow, is estimated to be 1,111 gpm. Total flow over a 24-hour
period with rainfall is estimated to average 1,219 gpm (see Table 1). The design flow rate
for the GWTS was selected to be 1,500 gpm to allow for increased groundwater extraction
from the extraction wells and potential uncertainty in post -installation flow behavior from
the seeps.
At the break tank, the influents from the extracted groundwater and the seeps will be
combined. The effluent of the tank will then be drawn on demand by the GWTS. The
impoundment storage will be dredged periodically, and solids characterized and disposed
of at an appropriately designated facility.
3. PROPOSED TREATMENT DESIGN
3.1 Overall Narrative
Based on turnkey vendor proposals currently under consideration, the GWTS is assumed
to be comprised of the following series of treatment units:
1. Metals oxidation;
2. Ultrafiltration (UF) or similar solids separation technology;
3. Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) adsorption;
4. Solids Handling & Dewatering; and
5. Ancillary processes for backwashing and residuals handling.
The influent oxidation system will be designed to help ensure complete oxidation of
reduced iron species (or other dissolved metals), by means of pH adjustment and possible
addition of inorganic coagulant and/or flocculant. Following oxidation, flow will proceed
to the solids separation unit in which particle sizes above an appropriate control threshold
will be removed. The filtrate will then be pumped to the GAC adsorption process, which
will remove the PFAS and other contaminants from the water. Influent flow to the carbon
beds may be pH adjusted to improve treatment performance. The GAC effluent will
undergo further pH adjustment back to near -neutral conditions and then be discharged to
the Cape Fear River via the pipe that conveys existing flows from Outfall 002 to the river.

NC 1-i,oi Nu: C-35flO onJ C-295
The solids separation unit reject, solids separation unit cleaning, and GAC backwash
water will collect in one or more thickener tanks. The thickened solids will be dewatered
using a filter press or centrifuge. Sludge cake will be transferred into hoppers that will be
trucked off -site for disposal at a permitted waste disposal facility. The dewatering filtrate
will be returned to the head of the plant and blended with the influent downstream of the
oxidation tanks. A backwash water tank will store a limited volume of treated water to
supply GAC backwash, polymer dilution, and other process water requirements. A GAC
backwash waste tank will collect backwash water and bleed it back into the treatment
process downstream of the oxidation tanks. Process design considerations for each unit
operation are further described in Section 3.2.
Based on vendor experience, Chemours' current operational experience at Outfall 003
elsewhere at the facility, and outcomes of past treatability pilot studies, it is anticipated
that a treatment design consisting of these elements will successfully address treatment
requirements. In addition, Chemours is currently performing treatability studies based on
anticipated wastewater characteristics of the groundwater and seeps.
A conceptual process flow diagram (PFD) of the GWTS and the associated sludge
handling system is shown in Figure 4.

3.2 Individual Unit Operations
3.2.1 Metals Oxidation
One or more influent oxidation retention tanks will be selected to allow for a hydraulic
retention time (HRT) of 30 minutes at the design flow of 1,500 gpm. The HRT has been
selected to achieve the optimal pH range of 6.5 to 7.5 and allow for the oxidation and
coagulation of ferrous iron (Fe2+) to the less soluble ferric iron (Fe3+). Multiple tanks may
be configured in a duty, active -standby configuration, with the capability to take one or
more tanks offline for maintenance and still process the total plant flow of 1,500 gpm.
Upstream of the tanks, chemical augmentation via an inorganic coagulant, sodium
hydroxide, and sodium hypochlorite will be performed to adjust the pH, limit biofouling,
and promote metals coagulation in the retention tanks. pH adjustment chemicals (sodium
hydroxide and sulfuric acid) will be added to reach the target pH based on feedback from
one or more pH probes.
3.2.2 Filtration
Effluent from the oxidation process is pumped to the solids separation operation, via two
or more pumps in duty -standby configuration.
Ultrafiltration membranes or a similar solids separation process will be used to remove
fine solids and turbidity down an appropriate control threshold upstream of the GAC beds
to prevent fouling and extend runtimes between carbon backwashes or media
replacement. The currently proposed OF system will be comprised of parallel banks of
submerged membranes, provided as a prefabricated system, including the vessels,
influent, effluent and backwash manifolds, automatic open/close valves, and any other
ancillary equipment required.
The filtered effluent from the solids separation process will be directed to a pH adjustment
tank where sulfuric acid can be dosed to lower the pH to approximately 3.5 prior to being
transferred to the GAC system. This pH adjustment is expected to improve GAC
performance and extend service life. The reject and backwash from the solids separation
process will routed to the sludge handling system to be dewatered prior to disposal.
3.2.3 Granular Activated Carbon Adsorption
PFAS removal will be accomplished using GAC adsorption. Filtered effluent will be
pumped from the pH adjustment tank to the GAC system and will enter three GAC
adsorption trains, each designed to treat one third of the design flow (500 gpm). Each
vessel will be configured as a down -flow process where water enters the top of the
adsorber and exits through the bottom. In this configuration, adsorption of contaminants

consultants
GrusymccCmisidimi<x ofNC. RC.
NC 1-i,oi Nu: C-35flO onJ C-295
(i.e., PFAS) will begin in the upper portion of the GAC bed. The mass transfer zone
(MTZ) will move from the top of the bed downwards as each portion of the bed becomes
saturated with the contaminants. Eventually, breakthrough will occur wherein the effluent
of the tower contains the contaminant. Multiple carbon adsorbers will be arranged in
series to capture the breakthrough.
A three -column, lead/middle/lag, configuration per train is proposed for the GWTS. It is
assumed that complete saturation of the lead column will occur prior to the initiation of a
carbon changeout. During routine operation the lead column will act as the primary
contaminant remover. The MTZ will travel from the top of the bed to the bottom until
breakthrough of a contaminant of concern occurs. The spent GAC in the lead column will
then be replaced with new GAC and the previous lead column will be placed in the lag
column position. The expired GAC will be shipped offsite for disposal and if appropriate,
regeneration of the carbon. The previous middle column will then become the lead
column and the previous lag/third position column will become the second position
column. It is expected that this operating the system in this manner will result in
significant operations and maintenance savings without compromising removal
efficiencies.
Preliminary sizing for this application indicates that a series of 12-foot diameter vessels
that can hold 20,000 pounds of carbon each will provide for the required hydraulic
loading rate and Empty Bed Contact Time for PFAS removal.
Effluent from the GAC trains will be transferred to a storage tank, where caustic will be
dosed to the effluent upstream of the tank to adjust the pH back to neutral prior to
discharge. This tank is sized to provide an appropriate retention time for the pH
adjustment step.
The used backwash water will be collected and transferred to the thickening process for
dewatering and disposal.
3.2.4 Solids Handling and Dewatering
The thickened sludge from the bottom of the thickening operation will be pumped to a
filter press or similar technology for dewatering. The supernatant decanted from the top
of the sludge thickening operation will be recycled to the influent of the initial chemical
oxidation step for reprocessing.
3.3 Operability and Maintenance Considerations
Process equipment has been selected from established vendors who maintain available
inventory of critical spare parts, and the turnkey service provider should also have access
to spares inventory based on duplication of unit operations in their commercial fleet. The

NC 1-i,oi Nu: C-35flO onJ C-295
modular nature of the process train means that it is readily expanded or modified to adjust
to future changes in process conditions or treatment requirements.
3.4 Process Monitoring
The treatment process will be instrumented to monitor process performance consistent
with industry best practices. Process data will be recorded in a remotely accessible
database with an extended storage capacity and uninterruptible power supply.
Regulatory compliance will be maintained by means of routine sampling and analytical
testing of the untreated influent and treated water discharge points. Once a week, the
influent to each train and the effluent of each vessel will be sampled and tested at the Site
internal laboratory. Percent breakthrough is calculated for each PFAS indicator species.
First PMPA, and then PFMOAA, breakthrough values are used to determine when a bed
replacement is triggered. Generally once breakthrough begins to be observed in the
middle vessel, the lead vessel's media is changed out. The former lead vessel, filled with
new media, then becomes the lag vessel, former lag becomes the middle vessel, and
former middle vessel becomes the new lead vessel.
4. SUMMARY
In summary, the groundwater and seep flow associated with the proposed groundwater
remedy will be collected and treated (by physical/chemical precipitation, filtration and
carbon adsorption). It is anticipated that the environmental impacts associated with the
groundwater and seep water will be significantly diminished and the treated water will
exhibit a significant reduction in PFAS target compounds, total suspended solids and
dissolved metals. PAHs, and heptachlor epoxide will also be treated if present. This will
reduce the impact of these pollutants in the Cape Fear River.

1. SITE HISTORY AND BACKGROUND
In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H.0105(c)(2), Chemours Company FC, LLC (Chemours) has
prepared this Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) for review by the North Carolina
Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ). The EAA supports the National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit application for the discharge of groundwater
and surface water from locations along the proposed groundwater remedy alignment at the
Fayetteville Works Facility (the Site), Bladen County, North Carolina.
Pursuant to paragraphs 2(c)(i) and 3(b) of the signed Addendum to the Consent Order paragraph
12 (CO Addendum) entered by the court on October 12, 2020, Chemours will install a
groundwater extraction remedy supported by a barrier wall and capture seep flow originating
upgradient of the remedy and treat these waters prior to discharge. The Groundwater Treatment
System (GWTS) is to have a removal efficiency of 99%,as indicated by the three indicator per -
and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) constituents PFMOAA, PMPA and HFPO-DA1 from
this flow to meet the requirements and criteria stipulated in the Addendum to the CO. A
NPDES permit application and supporting EAA is a pre -requirement for the construction and
operation of the GWTS to treat water from the groundwater and upgradient seep flow.
The remedy, which includes groundwater extraction and a GWTS, is to commence operation
by March 15, 2023 per paragraph 3(b) of the Addendum to the CO. To meet this requirement,
Chemours intends to complete construction of the GWTS by April 1, 2022. Chemours will
need to pump and treat the water collected by the remedy. The GWTS therefore needs to be
operational prior to commencement of remedy and extraction network construction in June
2022 to protect the integrity of the barrier wall.
The Site is located on NC Highway 87, 15 miles southeast of the City of Fayetteville, and south
of the Bladen-Cumberland County line. The Site encompasses 2,177 acres of relatively flat
undeveloped open land and woodland bounded on the east by the Cape Fear River, on the west
by NC Highway 87, and on the north and south by farmland. The site's location is shown in
Figure 1.
E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (DuPont) purchased the property in parcels from
several families in 1970. The Site's first manufacturing area was constructed in the early 1970s.
Currently, the Site manufactures plastic sheeting, fluorochemicals, and intermediates for
plastics manufacturing. A former manufacturing area, which was sold in 1992, produced nylon
strapping and elastomeric tape.

DuPont sold its Butacite® and SentryGlas® manufacturing units to Kuraray America, Inc. in
June 2014. In July 2015, DuPont separated its specialty chemicals business into a new publicly
traded company named The Chemours Company FC, LLC. With this separation, Chemours
became the owner of the entire 2,177 acres of the Fayetteville Works along with the
Fluoromonomers, Nafion® membranes, and Polymer Processing Aid (PPA) manufacturing
units. The polyvinyl fluoride (PVF) resin manufacturing unit remained with DuPont.
In addition to the manufacturing operations, Chemours operates two natural gas -fired boilers
and a biological wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) for the treatment of DuPont and Kuraray
process wastewater and sanitary wastewaters from DuPont, Kuraray, and Chemours.

2. PROJECT SUMMARY
The groundwater and upgradient seep flow will be captured west of a newly constructed
groundwater remedy consisting of extraction wells and supported by a barrier wall. The location
of the GWTS is also anticipated to be in the vicinity of the Site's Outfall 002 discharge. The
preliminary location is shown in Figure 2.

The GWTS will be comprised of a series of chemical and physical separation steps. Chemical
oxidation and pH adjustment will first be employed to precipitate metals, such as iron, to
prevent downstream contamination or fouling of the granulated activated carbon (GAC) media.
The precipitated metals and other particles above an appropriate control threshold will be
removed via ultrafiltration membranes or some other suitable separation technology. The
filtered effluent will then be treated for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) by GAC
adsorption. The reject from the filtration and GAC systems will undergo dewatering through a
thickening tank and filter press or centrifugation, from which the sludge cake will be disposed
of offsite and the press water will be recycled to the influent of the thickening tanks. Periodic
backwashing will extend membrane and carbon media life, and the carbon will be removed and
replaced based on breakthrough monitoring of several three -vessel carbon trains in a lead -
middle -lag arrangement. Associated design elements such as pumps, piping, electrical,
instrumentation and control for interlocks, mechanical and civil/structural elements will be
finalized during the detailed design phase. This design concept may be optimized based on
ongoing benchtop studies and data acquisition.

Additional process details associated with the treatment system are discussed later in this
document, under the "Direct Discharge Evaluation" section. A conceptual Process Flow
Diagram (PFD) showing the treatment schematic is also discussed in the same section.
3. STEP 1— ALLOWABILITY OF PROPOSED DISCHARGE
3.1 Analysis of Allowable Discharge Criteria
Based on the CO, the remedy will intercept groundwater and capture dry weather flow plus
stormwater from 0.5-inch or less storm events from seeps daylighting upgradient of the remedy
alignment. The water will be treated and discharged through the pipe which conveys the
existing Outfall 002 effluent to the Cape Fear River. All the intercepted and captured waters'
streams were flowing towards either the Cape Fear River or one of its tributaries of Willis
Creek and the Old Outfall. Therefore, no new flow will be added to the Cape Fear River that
would not have been introduced under the current conditions.
Applicability of the local government review and a stepwise assessment for each potential
restriction of the receiving watetbody per the NCDEQ EAA guidance document is addressed
below. The NCDEQ EAA guidance language is in italics, and a discussion follows.
3.1.1 Applicability of the Local Government Review
Per the EAA guidance document, the North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 (c)(6) allows
input from local governments regarding the issuance of NPDES permits for new non -municipal
domestic wastewater treatment facilities. As this facility is intended to treat groundwater and
surface water containing PFAS at an existing industrial facility due to a consent order, local
government review form does not need to be completed.
3.1.2 EAA Guidance on Potential Restrictions
EAA Guidance: Zero flow stream restrictions [15A NCAC 2B.0206(d)(2)1 apply to oxygen -consuming
waste in zero flow streams. In order to determine streamflow at the proposed discharge location,
contact the U.S. Geological Survey at 919-571-4000.
EAA Guidance on Streamflow: Low flow data (specifically, drainage area, summer and winter 7Q10,
average flow and 30Q2 flow statistics) are required to support the EAA.
The Cape Fear River is the receiving body for the discharge from the GWTS. This discharge
will mix with effluent from Outfall 002 in the outfall's discharge pipe prior to reaching the
river. The river's hydrologic unit code is 03030005. Based on available data from the U.S.
Geological Survey at the William O. Huske Lock and Dam (Station ID 02105500), the annual
average streamflow from January 2011 to January 2021 was 4,424 cubic feet per second (cfs);
the Cape Fear River is a perennially flowing river. The seven-day, 10-year average low (7Q10)
flow is 467 cfs. As such, the Cape Fear River is not a zero -flow stream, and zero -flow stream
restrictions do not apply.

The proposed discharge will consist of ground water and surface water collected, treated (by
physical/chemical precipitation and carbon adsorption), and discharged into the pipe that
conveys Outfall 002 effluent to the Cape Fear River. The discharge therefore will be of a higher
quality than the existing flows of groundwater and surface water and also have a lower amount
of oxygen consuming constituents than are currently present. There will also be no addition of
any external flow or constituents since this water is currently discharging to the Cape Fear
River. As previously stated, zero flow discharge restrictions are not applicable to the current
scenario because the Cape Fear River is not a zero -discharge stream. Additionally, the organic
compounds in this water will exert limited oxygen demand and will be further reduced due to
the GWTS. See Engineering Report — Treatment of Groundwater and Seeps Water (Geosyntec,
2021) for 5-day biological oxygen demand analytical results. Furthermore, this document
provides details of the unit processes for the GWTS.
EAA Guidance: Receiving stream classification restrictions [e.g., ORW, WS, SA, NSW, and HQ class
waters have various discharge restrictions or require stricter treatment standards]. Stream
classifications are available on the DWR Classification and Standards/Rule Review Branch website:
(http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/ps/csu), while wastewater discharge restrictions for various stream
classifications are presented in state regulations [ 15A NCAC 2B. 0200].
A review of publicly available resources, such as the NCDEQ Surface Water Classifications
maps, indicates the Cape Fear River is classified as WS-IV. WS-IV waters represent waters
used as sources of water supply for drinking, culinary, or food processing purposes for
moderately to highly developed watersheds. These waters are also protected for Class C uses
(fishable/swimmable). Figure 3 shows the Cape Fear River and its classification.

EAA Guidance: Basinwide Water Quality Plans. These basin -specific plans list NPDES permitting
strategies that may limit wastewater discharges to particular streams within the basin due to lack of
stream assimilative capacity, etc. Basin plans are available on the DWR website, or you may contact
the DWR Basinwide Planning Branch (http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/ps/bpu).
The 2005 Cape Fear River Basinwide Water Quality Plan2 is the most recent water quality plan
available. Details for Subbasin 03-06-15, which includes assessment unit 18-(26)c, are found
in Chapter 15. According to the water quality plan, the assessment unit is impaired for aquatic
life because of high levels of chlorophyll -a. Nutrient levels behind Lock and Dam 3 (i.e. the
W.O. Huske Dam) were high enough to support nuisance algal growth and during the drought
of 2001 and 2002, dissolved oxygen levels behind the structure dropped below the standard.
When stream flow conditions returned to normal, the dissolved oxygen levels recovered.
Chapter 15 of the report did not include the NPDES permit for Chemours (formerly DuPont);
however, DuPont was listed in Chapter 16 as discharging to Subbasin 03-06-16. The specific
location of the discharge from the DuPont WWTP was not given. According to the water quality
plan, the Cape Fear River mainstem in Subbasin 03-06-16, assessment unit 18(26)d also
experiences high levels of chlorophyll -a and low levels of dissolved oxygen. However, it
appears these segments were not included on the state list of impaired waters, due to lack of
data.
Based on the available data, the proposed discharge will be low in organic carbon and organic
nitrogen and should not cause a dissolved oxygen reduction. The discharge will include treated
flow from groundwater seeps that are currently discharging directly into the Cape Fear River.
The treatment of the seep flow will improve water quality conditions in the receiving water
body.
EAA Guidance: Impaired waters and [total maximum daily loads or] TMDLs. Certain
waterbodies listed as impaired on the 303(d) list and/or subject to impending TMDLs may
have wastewater discharge restrictions. The list of 303(d) impaired waters is located on the
DWR website, or you may contact the DWR Modeling and Assessment Branch
(http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/ps/mtu).
Based on the latest available 303(d) list for the Cape Fear River Basin (North Carolina 2020
Draft 303(d) List3) the Lower Cape Fear River assessment unit 18-(26.25)b, where the
Chemours facility is located, is not impaired. This assessment unit stretches from Grays Creek
to the Lock and Dam 3 and receives a rating of BLUE, indicating all assessments are meeting
criteria. The assessment unit 18-(26.25)c, beginning at Lock and Dam 3 to approximately 0.5

available data are inconclusive. This stream segment is located immediately downstream of
the Chemours' facility. The Cape Fear River is not listed on the 303(d) list as impaired at this
location, and there are no approved TMDLs that apply to the Cape Fear River at this location
that would impose discharge restrictions on a future permitted discharge.
EAA Guidance: Presence of Endangered Species. If endangered species are present in the
proposed discharge location, there may be wastewater discharge restrictions. Endangered
species information may be included in the Basinwide Water Quality Plan, or you may
contact the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (919-856-4520), N.C. Wildlife Resources
Commission (919-733-3633), or the N.C. Natural Heritage Program (919-733-7701).
The Environmental Conservation Online System (ECOS) was reviewed to determine if any
there are any endangered species present near the proposed discharge location. ECOS lists
endangered species by county. The list for Bladen County includes one aquatic species, the
Atlantic pigtoe clam, Fusconaia masoni, as a proposed threatened species. However, further
review using the Information from the Planning and Consultation4 (IPaC) online planning tool
did not identify the Atlantic pigtoe clam at the location. It should be noted that while there are
no critical habitats at this location the online lists include two endangered flowering plants:
American chaffseeed (Schwalbea americana), and rough -leaved loosestrife (Lysimachia
asperulaefolia) that could be found in the area. The northern long-eared bat (Myotis
septentrionalis), wood stork (Mycteria americana), and American alligator (Alligator
mississippiensis) are listed as threatened and the red -cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis)
is listed as endangered. The monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) is listed as a candidate
species by ECOS. Given the lack of critical habitat and the transient (mobile) nature of many
of these species, it is highly unlikely they would be impacted by the proposed discharge.

4. STEP 2: TREATMENT SYSTEM FLOW PROJECTION
Extracted groundwater and captured seep water will come from three water bearing units
present at Site listed in order from topmost to bottom most: the Perched Zone, the Surficial
Aquifer, and the Black Creek Aquifer. The total estimated flows are from the various sources
are described below in Table 1. Extracted groundwater will come primarily from the Black
Creek Aquifer with a relatively minor component of flow originating from the Surficial
Aquifer. The seeps captured at the barrier wall will receive flow from both the Perched Zone
and Surficial Aquifer. Figure 4 depicts the cross section of the remedy alignment and shows
the thicknesses of the Surficial and Black Creek Aquifer locations, and a description of each
water bearing until described below.
Fate and transport analyses at the Site demonstrated groundwater and onsite seeps as two
primary PFAS transport pathways to the Cape Fear River (Geosyntec, 2019a, 2021a).
Groundwater seeps, a common hydrogeological feature in sloping terrain such as that at the
Site, has also been determined to be one of the PFAS release mechanisms to surface water
receptors. The remainder of this sub -section provides a geological description of the water
bearing units and the methods by which conservative estimates (i.e. high end) flow rates for
extracted groundwater and seeps were developed.
4.1 Geological Descriptions
Perched Zone: The Perched Zone is a relatively thin, spatially limited layer of groundwater
present in silty sands to a depth of about 20 feet below ground surface. Groundwater in the
Perched Zone is recharged through precipitation onsite. Groundwater flows radially away from
a groundwater mound in the Perched Zone. This leads to groundwater discharge to the east at
seeps on the edge of the bluff (i.e. towards the river), to the south toward the Old Outfall 002,
and to the north and to the west downwards through the geological sequence towards the
Surficial and Black Creek Aquifers (BCA).
Surficial Aquifer: The Surficial Aquifer is an unconfined silty sand aquifer lying atop the
Black Creek Confining Unit and is present beneath the Perched Clay Unit. Groundwater in the
Surficial Aquifer flows towards the bluff faces at the Site (i.e. towards the river) — It flows both
north, east and west toward surface water bodies (Willis Creek, Seeps, Old Outfall 002) and
discharges into them as seeps.
Black Creek Aquifer: The BCA is comprised of fine to medium grained sands. The BCA
directly adjacent to the Cape Fear River. The BCA is interpreted to be the only transmissive
groundwater zone at Site in direct contact with the Cape Fear River. Groundwater in the BCA
flows from west to east towards the Cape Fear River.

4.2 Extracted Groundwater Flow Estimate
To model groundwater remedy scenarios in support of preparing a groundwater remedy design,
a three-dimensional (3D) transient -state finite element numerical groundwater flow model was
constructed in FEFLOW version 7.2 (DHI-WASY). The model domain covers an area
approximately 72,690,473 square ft (2.61 square miles) and models the hydrogeology of the
Site. The model varies in thickness from about 170 feet near the plant to 55 feet at the base of
the bluff adjacent to the Cape Fear River. The North Carolina Department of Public Safety
Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) elevation model was used to present ground surface
topography (NC DPS, 2015), while topography of the underlying model geology layers were
based on lithostratigraphic data obtained from Site monitoring wells, soil borings, hydraulic
profiling tool, and cone penetration tests contained in the three-dimensional visualization
model, EVSTM.
The model was calibrated to groundwater conditions and measurements observed from 2018
to 2020 using data from 139 Site wells: 60 wells in the Perched Zone, 32 wells in the Surficial
Aquifer, and 47 wells in the BCA. Results indicate that the model simulation compares
reasonably well with the observations from monitoring wells (Figure 5). This outcome
provided validation of the groundwater model's ability to simulate the field conditions.
The groundwater model was used to simulate remedy scenarios to identify which combination
and positioning of extraction wells and barrier wall would meet the CO Addendum paragraph
3(b) objective of intercepting groundwater flowing from under the facility towards the Cape
Fear River. The results of the remedy modeling indicates objectives can be met with extraction
wells in the BCA spaced at approximately 200 feet intervals with pumping rates varying
between 5 to 30 gallons per minute (gpm) per well with targeted extraction of the Surficial
Aquifer in specific locations. The progression of the design process presently indicates
approximately 60 groundwater extraction wells along the length of the remedy. These flow
simulations indicate extraction flow rates of 150 and 800 gpm from the Surficial and Black
Creek aquifers respectively.
4.3 Captured Seep Water Flow Estimate
The remedy is required to capture and treat the baseflow volume of seeps daylighting
upgradient of the remedy and stormwater flows from rain events of 0.5 inches or less. The
captured seep base flow rates were estimated using measured data from flumes and the
stormwater flows estimated using a hydrological model created using U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency's (EPA) Storm Water Management Model (SWMM).
The flumes installed in Seep A and B at locations A-4 and B-2 were used to estimate dry
weather baseflow rates (Figure 6). These two locations are both considerably downgradient of
the capture locations and therefore provide a high -end estimate of expected flow rates as more
seepage derived flow reaches these locations than at the capture location. Based on over 270

days of observation for each flume, the 95th percentile instantaneous dry weather flow readings
for Seep A was 31 gpm and Seep B was 130 gpm.
Stormwater flows from the seeps were estimated assuming 24-hour equalization storage for
pulses of volume from storm events up to 0.5 inches. The modeled volume of rainfall from
both seeps combined was estimated to be between 110,000 and 156,000 gallons. Equalized
over 24 hours, this results in a high end estimate of 108 gpm of flow.
4.4 Combined Flow Estimate
The present best estimate of flow to the GWTS was estimated from expected groundwater and
seep flows. Total expected groundwater flow was estimated via the results of the modeling
simulations and the seep flow was estimated via flume measurements that have been ongoing
since 2019. The estimated hydraulic loading in gpm from extracted groundwater and seeps for
the post -remedy construction condition is shown in Table 1.

4.5 Pumping and Conveyance Design
Groundwater modeling remedy development presently indicates approximately of 50 Black
Creek Aquifer and 10 Surficial Aquifer extraction wells will be required to intercept
groundwater. The combined maximum total flow rate produced from these wells is expected
to be 950 gpm.
Each well pump is expected to extract approximately 5 to 30 gpm and will be sized to have
additional flow capacity for contingency. The extraction wells will be of high -density
polyethylene (HDPE) construction below finished grade, whereas the wellhead will be of
polyvinyl chloride construction.
Each wellhead will then tee into their corresponding conveyance line (i.e., North or South
Force mains), constructed of HDPE. Approximately two thirds of the required extraction wells
will convey groundwater through the North Force main while the remaining third is conveyed
via the South Force main. The conveyance lines will be sized to accommodate the total
collected flow of the extraction with added contingency to allow for increased extraction rates
if required. Extracted groundwater will be conveyed to a surge tank prior to being treated by
the GWTS.
The seep flow will be impounded at or near seep capture locations (impoundment storage) to
provide equalization storage during rainfall events and remove readily settlable/suspended
solids prior to being conveyed to a break tank and treated by the GWTS.
The total maximum dry weather flow to the GWTS, after the groundwater remedy is fully
operational, including seep flow, is estimated to be 1,111 gpm. Total flow over a 24-hour
period with up to 0.5 inches of rainfall is estimated to average 1,219 gpm. The design flow rate
for the GWTS was selected to be 1,500 gpm to allow for increased groundwater extraction
from the extraction wells and potential changes in post -installation flow behavior from the
seeps.
At the break tank, the influents from the extracted groundwater and the seeps will be combined.
The effluent of the equalization tank will then be drawn on demand by the GWTS. The
impoundment storage will be dredged periodically, and solids characterized and disposed of at
an appropriately designated facility.
5. STEP 3 ALTERNATIVES
Following consultation with the NCDEQ, only the alternative cases below were considered in
the Steps 3 and 4 assessment.

5.1 Technologically Feasible Discharge Alternatives
5.1.1 Connection to Existing Public Treatment Plant
Conveying the effluent from the new treatment system for the groundwater and seeps flow to a
local Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW) has been evaluated. The nearest POTW to
the site is Fayetteville Public Works Commission (PWC) Rockfish Creek Water Reclamation
Facility (WRF) located approximately nine miles north of the Chemours site. The nearest
public sewer connection to this facility is approximately six miles north of the Chemours site.
The Fayetteville PWC has indicated that they will not accept the treated water. A letter
reflecting this is attached as Appendix A. The PWC Rockfish Creek WRF uses biological
treatment technology (i.e. for the treatment of domestic sewage) and does not provide treatment
for residual PFAS compounds in their influent. The extracted groundwater and captured seeps
will be treated for 99% removal of PFAS indicator compounds, and this process will also
remove other residual organic compounds in the water such that there will be minimal residual
oxygen demand in the treated effluent. Thus, the PWC cannot provide any additional effective
treatment for the treated groundwater and seeps, and such inflow would only serve to dilute the
plant load, add hydraulic loading, and result in increased operational costs and possible
performance issues for no net environmental benefit.
Additionally, the City of Fayetteville's Sewer Use Ordinance precludes the discharge of surface
water into the city's sewer system. As such there are no local public sewer connections
available to receive the treated groundwater and seeps flow, and hence discharging the water to
a POTW is not a feasible option
5.1.2 Wastewater Reuse
Reusing the treated effluent from the new groundwater and seep flow treatment system within
the manufacturing process or as non -contact cooling water was evaluated in lieu of discharging
the treated effluent from the GWTS back into the Cape Fear River. Direct discharge was
determined to be the preferred option to wastewater reuse. First, the GWTS must operate year-
round. Groundwater is continually recharged and flowing and the seeps are perennial surface
water flows. Both these flows are primary pathways of PFAS to the Cape Fear River and per
the CO Addendum must be intercepted, treated, and then per GWTS requirements, discharged.
Meanwhile the facility does not operate continuously, and ceases manufacturing activities for
one month per year. During this time each year, and other periodic shutdowns, the GWTS
operation would be unable to discharge treated water and would consequently be limited in its
ability to accept and treat water needing treatment.
Additionally, reusing treated water at the facility would not have a beneficial impact on the
river. The volume of treated water would comprise approximately 14% of the Site's daily water
TR0795 17 June 2021

NC I-irr i No C-35flO onJ C-293
use, thus offsetting only a small fraction of the water withdrawn from the river. Treated effluent
water reuse would also not change the water balance or the PFAS loading to the Cape Fear
River.
5.1.3 Direct Discharge
This section discusses the direct discharge of treated groundwater and seep water into the
receiving body (Cape Fear River), and the treatment process of the proposed treatment system
supported by a conceptual PFD. A detailed account of each unit operation shown in the PFD
can be found in the attached Engineering Report (Geosyntec, 2021c). The Engineering Report
also contains the data considered in the engineering design.
Based on turnkey vendor proposals currently under consideration, the GWTS is assumed to be
comprised of the following series of treatment units:
1. Metals oxidation;
2. Ultrafiltration (UF) or similar solids separation technology;
3. Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) adsorption;
4. Solids Handling & Dewatering; and
5. Ancillary processes for backwashing and residuals handling.
The influent oxidation system will be designed to help ensure complete oxidation of reduced
iron species (or other dissolved metals), by means of pH adjustment and possible addition of
inorganic coagulant and/or flocculant. Following oxidation, flow will proceed to the solids
separation unit in which particle sizes above an appropriate control threshold will be removed.
The filtrate will then be pumped to the GAC adsorption process, which will remove the PFAS
and other contaminants from the water. The GAC effluent will undergo further pH adjustment
back to near -neutral conditions and then be discharged to the Cape Fear River via the pipe that
conveys existing flows from Outfall 002 to the river.
The solids separation unit reject, solids separation unit cleaning, and GAC backwash water will
collect in one or more thickener tanks. The thickened solids will be dewatered using a filter
press or centrifuge. Sludge cake will be transferred into hoppers that will be trucked off -site for
disposal, at a permitted waste disposal facility. The dewatering filtrate will be returned to the
head of the plant and blended with the influent downstream of the oxidation tanks. A backwash
water tank will store a limited volume of treated water to supply GAC backwash, polymer
dilution, and other process water requirements. A GAC backwash waste tank will collect
backwash water and bleed it back into the treatment process downstream of the oxidation tanks.
Paragraph 2(c)(i) and paragraph 3(b)(ii) of the Addendum to the CO establish treatment
standards for the GWTS, as measured by the concentrations of indicator parameters of HFPO-
DA, PMPA, and PFMOAA. The long-term seep remediation objective at paragraph 2c(i)
requires a 99% reduction in annual mass loading of PFAS for the treated seep water. The
objective for the groundwater treatment in paragraph 3(b)(ii) is to provide a minimum PFAS

removal efficiency of 99% of treated groundwater. Based on vendor experience, Chemours'
experience at Outfall 003, and outcomes of past treatability pilot studies, it is anticipated that
these treatment requirements will be met. In addition, Chemours is currently performing
treatability studies based on anticipated wastewater characterizations of the groundwater and
seeps.

6.1 Economic Feasibility of Alternatives
A 20-year Present Value of Costs Analysis (PVCA) has been performed for the Direct
Discharge option which has been evaluated to be the preferred option. A PVCA was also
performed for the wastewater reuse option. Use of an existing POTW was determined to
be technically unfeasible and therefore is not included in the economic evaluation.
A preliminary design was prepared for the Direct Discharge option along with the associated
costs. The estimate uses standard factors for cost estimation, and as such is a Rough Order
of Magnitude estimate. For the PVCA costs, future expenditures have been converted to
a present value cost at the beginning of the 20-year planning period. Based on EPA
guidance, a discount rate of 3.5% for a 20-year period has been used in the analysis.
The PVCA includes all costs associated with construction, startup and annual operation
and maintenance costs. Costs also include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Capital costs
• Equipment costs
• Labor costs
• Installation costs
• Design costs
• Operations and maintenance costs
• Laboratory costs
• Waste disposal costs
• Labor costs
• Utility costs
Cost information is preliminary and has been generated from the following sources:
• Non -binding vendor quotes
• Publicly available land costs
• Previous project experience and bids
• Cost estimation manuals (e.g. Means Construction Index) and standard factors

Because of the turnkey nature of the proposed commercial treatment system, many of
these cost elements are captured within a few broader cost categories described below.
For example, the majority of facility operating costs are captured in a monthly operating
contract fee.
6.1.1 PVCA Calculation Method
The following standard formula per the guidance document for computing the Present
Value has been utilized:
Where:
PV = Co +
PV = Present Value of costs
Co = costs incurred in the present year
Ct = costs incurred in year t
t = time period after the present year, where t = 0
n = ending year of the life of the facility
r = current EPA discount rate
6.1.2 PVCA Summary
A summary cost table presenting the present worth for the treatment alternatives
considered at a design flow of 1,500 gpm, are presented as Table 2. Detailed cost
estimates are provided in Appendix B.

7. CONCLUSION AND PATH FORWARD
In summary, the groundwater and seep flow associated with the newly proposed
groundwater remedy will be collected and treated (by physical/chemical precipitation,
filtration and carbon adsorption). The preferred alternative is to discharge the treated
groundwater and seep water into the existing pipe which also conveys the effluent from
Outfall 002. It is therefore anticipated that the environmental impacts associated with the
current groundwater onsite will be significantly diminished and the treated water will
exhibit a significant reduction in PFAS target compounds, total suspended solids, and
dissolved metals. This will reduce the impact of these pollutants in the Cape Fear River.
Onsite water reuse would limit the operation of the GWTS when the Site is not
discharging and provides no additional benefit to the river.
Since the treated effluent presents a substantially reduced environmental impact to the
Cape Fear River relative to pre -remedy conditions (i.e. prior to construction of the
groundwater extraction network and supporting barrier wall), Chemours considers this
option to be the most feasible and environmentally beneficial to address the requirements
outlined in the Addendum to the CO. This evaluation is further supported by current
treatment successes at the existing Outfall 003 treatment facility, and the additional
technical details regarding treatment presented in the Engineering Report.
Approval of this EAA and subsequent permit authorization is respectfully requested as
expeditiously as possible so that Chemours can meet the requirements of the Consent
Order and Addendum.

RE: Sewer/POTW Connection Near Chemours,
This is in response to your inquiry to this office regarding the above referenced subject.
More specifically, you mentioned that Chemours is required to treat PFAS impacted water from
a surface water body on -site. The water is groundwater that is daylighting into a ditch and
ultimately flowing to the Cape Fear River. In order to obtain an NPDES permit, it is necessary
to get a letter from the local POTW indicating that they will or will not accept it. It is further
understood that Chemours is required to remove 99% of two specific constituents (HFPO-DA
and PFMOAA). As such the water would have a maximum of 50 parts per trillion of HFPO-DA
and around 800 ppt of PFMOAA (along with lower levels of other PFAS constituents).
Currently, PWC owns and operates a water reclamation facility, Rockfish Creek WRF,
approximately 9 miles to the north of the Chemours site at the intersection of Highway 87 and
Old Wilmington Road. The nearest collection lines that discharge to this facility are located
approximately 6 miles north of the Chemours site. In addition, this facility is not designed to
treat wastewater containing HFPO-DA, PFMOAA or other PFAS and PWC will not be able to
accept this wastewater.
If there are questions or if additional information is needed, please let me.
