Subject: Stop Alcoa from Discharging Cyanide into Our Waters NOW!
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.
I appreciate your consideration of the matter and ask you to take action to prevent further pollution of our valuable
resources. thank you.
Sincerely,
Janice Wakefield
