Subject: Sutton Coal Ash Permits
Dear DEQ,
Please do not allow Duke Energy to pollute our waterways with toxic coal ash pollution.
Our community faces too many uncertainties regarding the safety of our water.
Sutton Lake is an important fishing lake that many people depend on to feed their families, with a long history of coal
ash pollution problems. The permit would allow contaminated wastewater to flow into the Cape Fear River by removing
or weakening limits on arsenic, mercury, and other coal ash pollutants.
DEQ should require Duke Energy to stop its pollution Immediately.
The current permit as written would do little to protect our waterways.
If you care about your children, grand babies and Pets, Please strengthen the draft NPDES permit.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Jacquie Ott
