Please advise — Mr. Herring: Thank you for your email referencing concerns about Chemours and GenX. The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is aware of the situation and this week began collecting data samples to better understand current conditions and take appropriate action. While there is a low health risk associated with GenX, DEQ has strongly encouraged Chemours to identify any measures that can be taken to reduce or eliminate the discharges of the chemical to the Cape Fear River until the state completes its investigation. DEC} also is pushing the Environmental Protection Agency to provide regulatory guidance onG*nX.which isanunregulated contaminant. DEQ will be launching a website this week to share information about GenX. The page isnot yet active but will be easily found from our landing page at http Again, thank you for contacting DEQ about this matter.
