Subject: Re: Talking points
I suggest using the word "information" instead of "authority" for the second bullet. Or, you could be as
zdaborate as saying "a more complete toxicological profile"

Thank you for your work onthese talking points and generally onhandling these issues. The talking points look
good. However, is the word "authority" the correct one to use in the second bullet?

Subject: Talking points
All,
Jamie and I have developed the following talking points based on information gleaned from DWR staff
GenX
* EPA has put in place standards for many pollutants impacting water quality and public health. However, on
occasion, the presence of other contaminants such as GenX are introduced into the nation's waterways.
* North Carolina is awaiting guidance from the EPA that will provide the state Department of Environmental
Quality with the authority to begin developing regulatory limits for GenX.
0 The EPA is the sole agency responsible for establishing drinking water standards nationwide and has extensive
resources necessary to determine the nature, extent and potential impacts of chemicals.
0 When EPA establishes guidance for emerging contaminants such as GenX, this triggers the process used by
states like North Carolina to develop regulations for these contaminants.

* However, there are steps that DEQ staff plan to take in the interim. DEQ officials plan to work with Chemours to
assess waste streams containing GenX and determine if the company can reduce the amount of the chemical
compound being discharged to the river.
