Dear Ms. Rodriguez,
Stop Alcoa from Discharging Cyanide into Our Waters NOW!
I am writing to to ask that NCDENR deny Alcoa's application for a stormwater permit (#NC0004308) to
discharge cyanide contaminated groundwater into Badin Lake and Little Mountain Creek. NCDENR should
require Alcoa to clean up this old, leaking landfill -not permit discharges of hazardous chemicals into an already
impaired stream. The permit as written does not satisfy the Clean Water Act and should be denied or modified
to protect Little Mountain Creek from ongoing contamination.
No more cyanide in Little Mountain Creek!
Sincerely,
Don Bergey
